Canvas Module: Having Difficult Conversations Online

Asynchronous and online

Difficult conversations are difficult because the stakes are high, meaning the participants care deeply about the topics being discussed. The online classroom poses unique challenges when it comes to having these conversations, and both diplomacy and vigilance are key. This two-week, facilitated online discussion features a guide and resources to help you have these types of conversations virtually, as well as discussion prompts that give you the opportunity to share your thoughts and experiences with fellow faculty. This asynchronous module will be co-facilitated by Christine Baumgarthuber (Senior Learning Designer) and Greg Dillon (Learning Designer). Please use this form to register for an upcoming discussion. Participation is open to faculty, graduate students, staff, and postdoctoral scholars.
