Teachers’ Lounge | Climate Cafe: Emotions in the Classroom
October 15 @ 12:10 pm - 1:25 pm
In 2024–2025, Teachers’ Lounge is hosting Climate Cafes where instructors can gather to discuss how to leverage their teaching to build a just and sustainable future, no matter the discipline! Come for one or multiple sessions to join a resilient teaching and learning community.
In this session, we will discuss the power of emotions in the learning process, especially in the context of climate justice. Participants will leave with concrete strategies and resources for supporting themselves and their students in confronting challenging topics, as well as ideas for how to funnel those feelings into regenerative action.
This session is in-person and will be facilitated by Mark Phillipson and Abby Schroering from the Center for Teaching and Learning. A light, climate friendly lunch will be available to registered participants.
