Redirecting Disruptive Students
Location
University Center : Ballroom Lounge

Description
How do
you handle disruptive students? Some faculty struggle with students who are
openly disruptive during class, for example, challenging the professor in
nonproductive ways, calling out in class, or refusing to participate in
collaborate learning. Other faculty face challenges outside of class, like
students who demand additional points, extensions, or other special treatment.
What are the best ways to manage and redirect students’ disruptive behavior?
Join us for this session to share your approaches and learn classroom
management techniques from other faculty. To focus our discussion, we will read
"Preventing and Responding to Classroom Incivility," chapter 7
in Nilson, L. B. (2010). Teaching at
its best: A research-based resource for college instructors. (3rd ed.) San
Francisco: Jossey Bass
(pages 71-82). Lunch will be provided.
