In this session, participants will explore structures for facilitating class discussions on complex, controversial texts and topics in the classroom. Sydney will demonstrate techniques she has used in her own classroom when tackling topics such as South African Apartheid and the Haitian Revolution. Through this interactive session, participants will have the opportunity to engage in a collaborative discussion and plan for how to incorporate these techniques into their own curricula.
