EDUT 5051 Vulnerability in the Classroom

The Practice and Power of Vulnerability in the Classroom

Whether you are a teacher, leader, or learner, the revolutionary research by Dr. Brené Brown has transformed the way we view vulnerability in our relationships at home, at work, and at school. Learn how to nurture healthy emotions like trust and courage while combating shame and fear. Discover fresh ideas for cultivating a classroom community that supports all students and expand your understanding about how trauma impacts learning. Consider your process for providing feedback and gain new practices for growing gratitude for a greater sense of well-being. Teach your students that “vulnerability is not always comfortable, but it is never weakness,” as you explore how vulnerability empowers the way we teach, lead, and learn.
