This workshop seeks to address strategies for noticing and advising struggling students in the language classroom. These strategies of fostering a thoughtful and respectful dialogue with students however, can also apply to courses other than language and culture. In partner and group work, participants will discuss scaffolded approaches to guiding students through the demanding landscape of staying on track with study time, study breaks, self-care, and asking for help.

All graduate students are welcome. This event grows out of concerns in the Francophone, Italian, and Germanic Studies department, and so may be most useful to students in related fields.

Light Refreshments provided.  

Counts toward the CETLI Teaching Certificate.
