Workshop Description: The craft of theatre offers tools and techniques that can help increase educators' empathy and intercultural competence. In this session, participants will practice: 1) presenting their authentic persona in the classroom so that students can relate to them and invest in a genuine relationship with them; 2) validating all students' ideas and perspectives by experimenting with the improvisational concept of “Yes, and”; 3) relaxation and rehearsal techniques that allow instructors to think on their feet with more agility when difficult conversations arise; 4) strategies to facilitate community building and sense of belonging in the classroom.
