339: π¬β When Discussion goes off the Rails
Description
Weβve all been in a discussion hurtling off the track and into the canyon, far, far below. Chances are, youβve been in this type of discussion as a student AND as a teacher, and itβs no fun in either scenario.
So how do we prevent it?
And what do we do if itβs already happening and glaze is washing over our studentsβ eyes?
In todayβs episode, the fifth in our discussion series, weβre diving into how to deal with discussions that go off the rails. Because even if YOU prepare in all the ways, those days happen. And it doesn't mean all is lost.
