BONUS - Teaching Civics in the Age of Outrage - June Klees
Manage episode 500031603 series 3418004
What Happens When Students Talk Across Generations?
We sit down with with Dr. June Klees, a historian and educator at Bay College, about the Waging Dialogue initiative — a unique civics program designed to help students develop the confidence and skills to engage in dialogue across generational and ideological divides. Students are paired with older conversation partners in what’s called an “intergenerational dyad,” encouraging sustained, intentional conversations that challenge assumptions, stretch comfort zones, and build common ground.
You’ll also hear directly from students reflecting on their personal experiences, growth, and takeaways from the program.
