Actualizing Accountability: Teaching for Critical Engagement 

Nicole Martin
November 2, 2017

This interactive working-group session takes up this question by inviting participants to consider how accountability in the classroom works as an alternative to "safe space." Attendees will be led through exploratory exercises to develop tools and strategies for creating a classroom where students are held responsible for their actions and can enact a radical critical engagement with course content and their peers.

The session is divided into two 2-hour segments with a 1.5-hour break in the middle for dinner (on your own); participants are expected to be in attendance for the entirety of our meeting time.
