EDCS-519 Purposeful and Engaging Classroom Discussions

In this course, participants will explore how to promote a safe learning environment where reflection, encouragement, peer review, and goal setting each has a role. Ways to engage students in discussions that promote intellectual, active exploration of content are a primary focus. With a deep exploration of questioning strategies, participants will examine how to facilitate classroom discussions where all students are engaged, all perspectives are sought, and all voices are heard. Participants will also explore how to effectively use questioning to encourage students to ask questions and reflect on peer comments to deepen their understanding and real-life applications.
