The WOCI and the English Department will be co-hosting a workshop on trauma-informed classroom techniques for graduate students on Tuesday, February 28th at 1pm via Zoom. This is a follow up to the discussion that was held on February 17th (Feminist strategies for teaching during a crisis). All are welcome. Dr. LeConté Dill, who will be facilitating the workshop, will be paying particular attention to how womxn of color navigate teaching in the days and weeks following a traumatic event. This workshop aims to provide a space for graduate student instructors to learn how to show up for their students with a politics of care and a particular sensitivity to what students have just been through here at MSU. A flyer is attached for your review. Please share broadly.

Several people asked for links to the resources from workshops we mentioned from last year, so I've linked to the iteach pages we made for those workshops below. It's probably easiest to go to the Playlists section for every link to access the material for each workshop quickly.

I'll work on migrating all this content into this CISAH group shortly (once I finish some course prep for next Wednesday!).

What pedagogy texts inform your practice? Can you share who you're reading and how it's affected what you do in the classroom, as a way to crowd-source different resources and practice that crucial "how I talk about how I teach" element we discussed?

Returning to the Classroom After a Tragedy: A 7-step Approach to Starting Class Again

This week, faculty, instructors, and graduate assistants will be returning to their classes for the first time after the tragic events of this week. There will be some classes where they have lost one of their classmates, which may add to the intensity of the experience of both students and instructors. Included in the resource attached (3-page PDF) are recommendations for how to structure the return to class for your students and yourselves, with trauma-informed considerations and practices.

This artifact is one of a collection of evidence-based resources for educators coming back to class after collective tragedy was compiled by Spartans:

"Posttraumatic Stress Among Students After the Shootings at Virginia Tech" (Hughes et al., 2011) provides a discussion of findings from a cross-sectional survey of Virginia Tech students the summer/fall following the April 16, 2007 shooting of 49 students and faculty using the Trauma Screening Questionnaire to assess PTSD symptoms. The 9-page PDF article from Volume 3, Number 4, of Psychological Trauma: Theory, Research, Practice, and Policy is attached below.

If you have a research writing/information finding component in your class, the MSU Libraries Peer Research Assistant program is equipped to help. These undergraduate students can help their peers:

Plan for a research project (such as developing a search strategy)
Find information for research papers (like scholarly articles or books)
Evaluate information (is this paper scholarly?)
Understand citation styles and create citations (MLA, APA, etc.)
Get connected to library services

Appointments and walk in hours are available in Hubbard and the Main Library: https://libguides.lib.msu.edu/engage

"This study investigated the role of resilience and gratitude in the relationship between trauma exposure, posttraumatic stress (PTS), and posttraumatic growth (PTG) following the campus shooting at Seattle Pacific University. The prevalence of community traumatic events such as school shootings has increased dramatically in the last decade. However, a significant number of individuals report positive changes such as enhanced appreciation for life, suggesting that some people are able to convert adverse experiences into personal growth. The purpose of this study was to understand characteristics about trauma and protective characteristics that contribute to PTG."

I presented an overview of library discovery systems at the University Committee on the Library yesterday, and thought I'd share it here also.
