Wed., Nov. 12, 2025 • Non-Ideal Student Behavior & Unexpected Situations • 7 PM ET • $20

Faculty often encounter significant challenges when managing non-ideal student behaviors and unexpected situations that disrupt the learning environment. Issues such as chronic disengagement, academic dishonesty, emotional outbursts, and boundary-testing interactions require thoughtful, consistent, and compassionate responses. 

Join our facilitators Hanae Haouari (New Jersey City University),  Urik Halliday (Von Steuben Metropolitan Science Center), and Mare Sullivan (Seattle Pacific University, retired) as they explore how to identify practical and adaptable strategies that support student learning while maintaining faculty well-being, upholding classroom integrity, and fostering a positive and supportive learning environment.

Wed., Dec. 3, 2025   •   Rocking Roles All Semester Long  •  7 PM ET  •  $20

The model POGIL classroom relies on roles to help students work effectively as teams. This session will highlight practical ways to introduce roles and keep students engaged with them throughout the semester.

Join our facilitators Natalie Hales (Weber State University) and Kristi Deaver (Ankeny Centennial HS) as they present an intro activity that may be used in any classroom. They will also share tips and strategies to help students “rock the roles” all semester long—and invite you to contribute your own ideas and experiences to the discussion.
