Tough Conversations in the Classroom
Get PDFThere are quite a few topics of discussion that can be difficult within the curricula for Recreation and Leisure, Health Professions, Sport and other disciplines within CSKLS. These might include environmental stewardship, immigration, political funding for programs, LGTBQ matters, racial discrimination, and DEI. We will explore some approaches gleaned from secular pedagogy sources. We will present useful techniques for planning discussions, facilitating, and following up after discussion. We will discuss differences between teaching at a public institution and a faith-based institution. The presenters will give a couple of examples from their classes for discussion. Attendees will be encouraged to engage in small-group discussions about difficult topics in their own classes—what is working, what is not as they facilitate difficult discussions.
Learning Outcomes:
Attendees: will be able to identify at least three best practices for discussing difficult topics in the classroom. will be able to describe the unique challenges of teaching difficult topics at faith-based institutions. will be able to take one new approach back to their classroom

Bradley, Eunice
No full textEunice Bradley came to Lipscomb in 1954 as director of the News Bureau. With a B.A. in English from Vanderbilt and a bachelor of journalism from the University of Missouri, she taught journalism and was faculty adviser to The Babbler, which routinely won All-American honors under her direction. She was a devoted Bison athletics fan, member of Hillsboro church of Christ, a U.S. Army veteran in World War II, and active in such professional organizations as the Tennessee Education Association and the Nashville Business and Professional Women’s Club, which selected her as its “Woman of Achievement” in 1960. Miss Bradley retired in 1976.https://digitalcollections.lipscomb.edu/legends/1044/thumbnail.jp
Meador, Margaret
No full textMargaret Meador joined the David Lipscomb Elementary School faculty in 1949. She began teaching fourth grade full-time in 1950 and taught with such unusual effectiveness that when she announced plans to retire in 1975, students, parents, and faculty talked her into staying one more year. She introduced her students to a world larger than their own, drilled them in multiplication, spelling, and grammar, and ignited the spark of interest in literature and history. But her most important influence was the presentation of pure Christianity through the lessons she taught and the loving image of Jesus Christ she lived before her students each day.https://digitalcollections.lipscomb.edu/legends/1017/thumbnail.jp
