Teaching the Election: Resources and Best Practices

Discussing presidential elections in a hyperpolarized environment can be challenging. Sphere is excited to support you in these conversations with your students by bringing civil discourse to your classroom. In this webinar, we will equip you with tools and resources that will help you effectively embed healthy conversation habits in your classes when discussing election topics. You will hear from Sphere’s content development team and content contributors Betty Nordengren and Kelly Young‐​Raymore about best practices and strategies so that you can bring these discussions to your classroom in a productive, meaningful manner. The webinar will be broken into two parts. The first part will provide context and guidance on thoughtfully discussing elections with your students; the second part will take a deeper dive into the practical application of these resources by facilitating breakout discussions for middle and high school educators. Attendees will leave with tangible, practical tools to apply in their classes and feel empowered to implement civil discourse in class discussions around the upcoming election.
