In last week’s episode, I talked about the importance of students experiencing belonging as a central factor in their willingness (or lack thereof) to engage in your class, and I talked in detail about how to position the cultivation of belonging as a cornerstone of your pedagogy.
How do we inspire feelings of belonging?
Through community building.

Students aren’t showing up!
The lack of recent student engagement has educators feeling helpless and stuck.
They are asking:
What do I do when my students aren’t doing any of the work?
How do I respond to the students who do complete their work, but who submit it at the last minute, and clearly didn’t pay attention to what the...

Despite how many educators began teaching through Zoom and other online meeting platforms, very few ever received formal training in remote pedagogy.
Most were simply thrown into the deep end and forced to figure out how to swim on their own.
As a result, many attempted to recreate an in-person experience through an online platform, and were not satisfied with the results.
Today, I address two of the...

One of the most common reasons students are hesitant to share their ideas in class is because they are worried that what they have to say is “wrong.”
In other words, they think that to participate effectively in class discussion they are supposed to answer the teacher’s questions correctly.
They don’t actually understand what is expected of them as a participant in a...

2022-05-3117 minLet's Talk FacilitationEp 12 - How to Keep a Discussion on Track: Five Simple Tools to Stop a Talkative Student from Derailing the GroupPicture it:
You’re teaching a discussion-based class. It could be anything–a first year seminar, an intermediate tutorial for majors, a capstone group–whatever.
You’ve got a certain amount of material to cover and have worked hard to create an agenda that, if you can get the timing right, will help the group arrive at the biggest take-aways by the end of the class period.
Despite your best efforts to keep everyone engaged and on track, there are a few students who often shift the discussion off topic and derail the class.
2022-05-2414 minLet's Talk FacilitationEp 11 - How to Respond Effectively to Students During Difficult Discussions: Five Tips for When You Feel OverwhelmedEven experienced educators who consider themselves decent discussion facilitators can get stressed out during difficult discussions, and are always looking for ways to improve their skills.
In today’s episode, I focus on the kind of discussions that are difficult because a class is talking about injustice of some kind, and privileged students and facilitators (unknowingly or not) perpetuate the injustice through their means of engagement.
This oppressive behavior creates conflict, as the students (or facilitators) who are targeted by the injustice are forced to defend themselves against harm or disengage.
It might be...

If you’ve ever wrestled with how to bridge the gap between your radical ambitions and your students’ more conservative inclinations, today’s episode of Let’s Talk Facilitation is for you!
In it, I share with you the go-to strategies you can use in discussions with students who would rather simply be told what they need to know, take the test or write the paper, get a good grade, and get out. You know–not b...

One of the reasons facilitators may experience stress in anticipation of a difficult discussion around injustice is because they are relying on their good intentions to carry them, but they don’t always have all the tools they need to deliver on those good intentions. In other words, there is a disconnect between what they value in theory and how those theories translate into effective practice.
In today’s episode, I sha...

Let's Talk FacilitationEp 8 - How to Make Discussions Inclusive, For Real (Part 2): Three Foundational Strategies for Taking Concrete ActionWhat would it mean to facilitate a transformative, socially just experience for your students, rather than simply paying lip service to the “inclusion” buzzword?
Many educators are full of conviction about wanting to create inclusive spaces, but don’t have the tools to do so effectively.
Today I talk about how to make class discussions inclusive, for real. Not just stating the intention and going about business as usual, but actually changing how we may be used to engaging.
In particular, I’m going to help you identify three foundational strategies for taking concrete...

Let's Talk FacilitationEp 7 - How to Make Discussions Inclusive, For Real (Part 1): A Different Way of Thinking about Our GoalsDo you aspire for your class discussions and activities to be more inclusive, but feel confused about what exactly to do beyond trying to be kind and fair to everyone?
One of the reasons educators have a hard time creating inclusive learning spaces is because they don’t have a clear idea what inclusion means. Indeed, the words “diversity and inclusion” are thrown about pretty frequently on college campuses without any real attention to defining what that means. As a result, a lot of people talk about being inclusive, but don’t have practices to back up their in...

Let's Talk FacilitationEp 3 - How to Prepare for Difficult Discussions: My Go-To Method for Supporting a Group that Can Handle the Hard StuffIs the fear of messy conflict holding you back from bringing up difficult topics or questions for your class to discuss?
Difficult discussions can be intimidating. They are a particular sticking point for facilitators who feel nervous about their ability to effectively guide a group when there is discomfort, tension, or outright conflict.
I don’t want you to be stuck feeling guilty by shying away from difficult discussions, because you know remaining silent perpetuates the problems your discussions might otherwise help solve.
Rather than waiting until conflict emerges to figure out a fi...

Dealing with dominating students is one of the most common sources of frustration that facilitators share with me. They care deeply about creating equitable and accessible spaces for all of their students, but worry about causing harm to overly talkative students by shutting them down.
Students themselves report that this is one of the most frustrating dynamics that facilitators handle poorly, so if you want students to feel sat...
