Schreyer Institute to hold workshop on handling challenging classroom situations

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – The Schreyer Institute for Teaching Excellence will present a free workshop titled “Handling Challenging Situations in the Classroom” from 10:15 to 11:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 14, in 7A Sparks Building at University Park. The workshop will be repeated from noon to 1:15 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 15, in 315 Rider Building.

Challenging situations happen to all teachers, whether that means chronically late students, distracting use of mobile devices, hostile students, or some other behavior. Led by graduate consultants David Favre and Moji Shahvali, the workshop will discuss ways to deal with such situations without becoming part of the disruption.

This workshop satisfies a requirement for the Instructional Foundations Series for new instructors.
