Teaching practice, soft skills, debate, discussion, and how to engage with ideas.
The audience
For teachers and faculty who want a method for teaching practice — for debate, discussion, engaging with ideas, and understanding rhetoric — when a subject is contested, and when it isn’t.
The work
Where it applies
What’s on offer
Two in-person or live online workshops, with different work in each. An online workshop series is on the way. Workshops can include follow-up practice after the event, to consolidate what was learned.
A session on teaching practice and the soft skills of discussion: how to open a conversation in class, and how to engage with ideas. Built for the classroom, and for the faculty conversations around it.
A full day on debate, engaging with ideas, and rhetoric. Participants practise the method as a teaching tool, with time to work through the kinds of controversy that arise when a class takes on a difficult subject.
Workshops can include follow-up practice after the event, so the method has time to consolidate.
Coming soon
A facilitated online series, so a group can keep practising after a first session — or begin online.
A session at your workplace, school, campus or community.
The same workshop, run live online.
