Overview

Never heard of a classroom agreement before? That’s okay! A classroom agreement is a shared agreement between learners on how they want to engage with one another in the classroom environment. In this workshop, I will teach you how to create classroom agreements with your students and how you can apply it to a wide variety of classrooms (online, asynchronous, etc.). Participants will walk out of this workshop knowing how to guide their students in the process of drafting agreements and feeling more confident that they can start the semester with a calm, supportive atmosphere.

EVENT FORMAT: This workshop is an on-campus, in-person event.

EVENT FACILITATOR: Jessie Miller, PhD Student, Sociology, jmill66@uic.edu
