Webinar: Creating a Positive Climate for Learning: Tips and Tools for Dealing with Incivility and Conflict in the Classroom
Research shows that differences (e.g., race, gender, etc.) in the classroom are often the variables around which conflict and disruptive behaviors emerge. These behaviors in turn hinder faculty effectiveness and student engagement and learning. 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.
