This six-part series will support instructors in understanding constructive dialogue\, the importance of proper preparation for it in your courses\, as well as recognizing and responding to conflict.  Through practice\, reflection and discussion participants will expand their facilitation skills to support constructive dialogue.   \nAlternate Fridays @ 1:00-2:00pm starting September 26th. \nNote: The following 30 minutes (2:00-2:30) will be reserved for extended conversations and crowdsourcing challenges\, but not required for the program. \nLEARN MORE & REGISTER HERE URL:/citl/event/facilitating-constructive-dialogue-in-the-classroom/2025-12-05/ LOCATION:102 Fernald Hall\, 102 Fernald Hall\, Orono\, 04469 CATEGORIES:Active Learning Teaching Strategies,CITL Workshops,Communities of Practice,Equity and Inclusion,Faculty Development,New Faculty,Teaching ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:/citl/wp-content/uploads/sites/266/2025/07/Dialogue-F25.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20251209T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20251209T134500 DTSTAMP:20260612T074322 CREATED:20251215T151755Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251215T151755Z UID:10001649-1765283400-1765287900@umaine.edu SUMMARY:Teaching Observation Partnership (TOP) DESCRIPTION:Observe.
