Presentation Description
Even the best and most experienced of educators sometimes get stuck in cul-de-sacs where we don't know how to engage our students or how to respond to unexpected situations. In this interactive workshop we'll explore the complex blend of challenges and opportunities that can surface in and out of classes, and the ways that we can use our creativity and curiosity to transform initially awkward encounters into deep and transformative learning experiences.
