Walking the Tightrope: Fostering Inclusive Pedagogy in Turbulent Environments

We are in a time of change, polarization, and in some states, increased legislative challenges to what and how we teach.  These challenges are leading to ongoing debates within our discipline linked to shifting professional norms and values and the impacts our pedagogical practices in preparing the next generation of public service leaders. 

Autism Workshops

Hear from an expert in the field of autism on what it’s like to be an autistic student and how educators and students can find common ground in and out of the classroom. Mr. Sweeting is a dynamic speaker who challenges us to question how we approach teaching neurodivergent students using traditional classroom practice. He shares what it’s like to be a college student with autism and how educators can make small changes that yield lasting success for students on the autism spectrum.
