This workshop builds on concepts and strategies learned in Creating Inclusive Classrooms to help instructors develop knowledge and skills for interrupting bias and managing hot moments in the classroom. Participants will engage in and practice key concepts including: vulnerability, active listening, recognizing intent versus impact, and strategies for confronting bias. Participants will walk away with a deeper understanding of the impact of bias from both a student’s and an instructor’s perspective, as well as concrete tools for troubleshooting friction in the classroom.

Please note: It is strongly recommended that you take our Creating Inclusive Classrooms workshop first.
