About

Improv for Educators is a series of 3 in person workshops designed to help participants enhance their presentation skills and grow more confident responding to unexpected (sometimes "charged") situations in the classroom. We will explore foundational improv guidelines such as: acceptance and advancement ("yes, and..."), commitment, clarity, risk-taking, status, communication, and congruence and discuss how and when these themes show up for us in the classroom.

Facilitator

Lauren Spring, Educational Developer, Centre for Excellence in Learning & Teaching (CELT)
