About this Event
The Art of Discussion is the inaugural event in our new “Art of Teaching” series. Facilitating discussions is among the most challenging arts for a teacher to master. It is also one of the most important, as it encourages students to apply, test, and extend their learning in dialogue. Because of this, facilitating a stimulating and successful discussion requires concentration and creativity. Join us to hear from Jenny Goldstein (Global Development, College of Agriculture & Life Sciences), Alex Livingston (Government, College of Arts & Sciences) and Hale Tufan (School of Integrative Plant Sciences, CALS) as they share some of the hard-won secrets of this unique art. Then, participate in a conversation about how to better master the art of discussion.
