Faculty participate in roundtable
On Tuesday, Feb. 23, a dozen or so EML faculty
gathered in Eder 211 to participate in an informal roundtable discussion hosted
by the Morale and Motivation Committee. The discussion topic was "Working
with Challenging Students," and many faculty shared advice, asked
questions, and challenged the group to think about student behavior in new and
insightful ways. Issues of student and teacher safety came up, as did student
mental health; teacher authority based on age, gender, ethnicity, etc.; cell
phone use in the classroom; and student disrespect versus naiveté. The
committee would like to thank everyone who participated and made the brown bag
session possible. We're already receiving requests to host another one!
