Webinar: Creating a Positive Climate for Learning: Tips and Tools for Dealing with Incivility and Conflict in the Classroom

Rather than avoid or overlook disruptive behaviors, faculty can address incivility and conflict and powerfully model for their students how to work with uncomfortable circumstances.
