Join a facilitated round table discussion in the Great Room of HFSC to discuss one of the following topics with colleagues. These are intended to be conversational and connection-building. Grab a coffee and join a table conversation or move between topics and tables.
The Restorative Justice-friendly University Classroom: In this roundtable conversation, we will explore the potential of and possibilities for restorative justice in the university classroom as a pedagogical force and community-building framework. Join Restorative Georgetown members Brit Egan and Rose Dallimore who will facilitate this discussion.
Considering the Ethics of AI: Join faculty members Shannon Brick and Akshaya Narayanan for a discussion of the ethics surrounding the use of AI in academic pursuits, both in the classroom and in research.
Difficult Discussions in the Classroom: Join CNDLS staff members David Ebenbach and Kim Huisman-Lubreski in exploring Georgetown’s policies on speech and expression; the relationship between free expression and justice, equity, and inclusion; ways to set up a course community to promote open, constructive dialogue; and ways to handle unexpected clashes.
Sustainability Education: It's common now to hear the claim that "Every course is a course on climate change [or environmental sustainability]." But how does this work in practice and in your own courses? Join Jamie Olsen, GUQ, in sharing with and learning from colleagues how to meet the challenge of incorporating sustainability education throughout the curriculum.
Georgetown Dialogues Initiative: Vice Provost for Education David Edelstein will lead a discussion about the new Georgetown Dialogues Initiative, a multiyear project aimed at promoting productive dialogue across differences on our campus. Learn about the different components of the Initiative and how you and other faculty become involved.
