Now Entering the Slow Zone

Description:
Students' lives get hectic and busy (i.e., midterms, work schedules, childcare, politics, global concerns). They may show up in the classroom distracted and anxious. This session shares three "slow zone" practices applicable in any course (private free-writing, verbatim reading with active listening, end-of-semester mapping reflection) which "force" class to slow down, spend time digging in, and genuinely hear one another without sacrificing learning.
