Divisive times present challenges to open and constructive classroom conversations and may cause stress for students and teachers. How can we facilitate discussions through these tensions and use these moments to prepare students for success in a democratic society?
The event ends with a reception to celebrate and connect with members and friends of the Penn and Penn GSE communities.
