Trauma Informed Teaching Strategies
Topic Area: Online Teaching & Learning
Presented by: Cheryl Williams-Hecksel, Kelley Blanck
Abstract:
"It is suggested that 66-85% of youth report lifetime exposure to one or more traumatic events by the time they reach college (Read, Ouimette, White, Colder, & Farrow, 2011; Smyth, Hockemeyer, Heron, Wonderlich, & Pennebaker, 2008) Trauma Informed (TI) teaching assures that students are engaged in a manner sensitive to potential adverse and traumatic experiences. Student success and learning is dependent upon preparedness of educators to address the impact of trauma on learning and development (Davidson, 2017). The current pandemic and ongoing racial injustice amplify this need.
Central to trauma informed work are principals of Safety, Trustworthiness, Choice, Collaboration and Empowerment with ongoing attention to issues of Equity and Inclusion (SAMSHA, 2020) This workshop will explore strategies that embrace these principals and can be used in classroom (in person and online) and other learning environments to support students at Michigan State University. These strategies have evolved as a part of the work of the MSU Trauma Services and Training Network (TSTN.) This network, formed in 2018, has an active and engaged learning community that has been meeting regularly for more than two years and is committed to creating a trauma informed institution.
Included in this discussion of TI teaching are course policies and procedures, integrating flexibility and choice, promoting self-reflection, growth and professional development. Additionally, approaches for responding to trauma affected students will be outlined.

This beautifully written book features teacher narratives and youth-authored student spotlights that reveal what classrooms do and can look like in the wake of these critical moments. Dunn incisively argues for the importance of equitable commitments, humanizing dialogue, sociopolitical awareness, and a rejection of so-called pedagogical neutrality across all grade levels and content areas.

Round Table to explore Trauma-Informed Student Engagement
Topic Area: Information Session
Presented By: Cheryl Williams-Hecksel
Abstract:
The Trauma Services and Training Network, formed in 2018, is comprised of representatives of academic and service units at MSU that are involved in providing trauma specific services and training. In the Fall of 2019, this focus expanded as a TSTN Faculty Learning Community was formed. The TSTN continues to convene members of the University community who are interested in and committed to creating a trauma informed institution. The work of TSTN has continued and takes on increasing significance as members of the University community negotiate the current pandemic as well as current issues related to racial disparities and discrimination.
The principals that a trauma informed institution embraces are Safety, Trustworthiness, Choice, Collaboration and Empowerment with ongoing attention to issues of Equity and Inclusion. A trauma informed organization promotes these principals as values that support assuring that all people are engaged in a manner that is sensitive to potential adverse and traumatic experiences. This roundtable discussion will engage participants in exploring strategies and challenges related to engagement of students through trauma informed teaching and service delivery.This roundtable provides an important opportunity for the TSTN to engage additional stakeholders in the current and future work of the faculty learning community.

Critical Thinking about Scholarly Information
Teaching & Learning Librarians at MSU use these (or similar) questions to help students develop evaluation and critical thinking strategies as they learn to identify scholarly information.
Questions
How does the layout of the article support a particular argument? Is it structured to guide the reader through understanding the research being done (point to specific examples)?
Does it use discipline-specific language (point to specific examples)? What does that tell you about the intended audience or primary readership of the article?
Is the author someone who you would expect to be an expert on this topic? How can you tell? What kind of authority does the author have?
What types of evidence does the author use in the article? Can you understand how the author arrived at the conclusions they did?

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 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."

Latine Voces Uncensored: Symposium on Latine Narratives
The digital age has brought us virtually (pun, intended) limitless access to information in the digital age. Despite this access, Latine communities continue to confront the challenges of rampant misinformation, censorship and misrepresentation—influencing how Latines are depicted in news coverage to popular culture to domestic and international policies that directly impact (and harm) our communities. Accurate Latine narratives and exposure to our histories are as important as ever. In this timely and important symposium, we address representation and free speech through the lens of Puerto Rican storytelling.
Hosted by Latino Spartans & MSU Chicanx/Latinx Association (ChiLA).
Note: The first half of this event will take place at the Multicultural Center. The Library portion will begin at 1:30 in the Green Room.

Film Screening: I’m Still Here (Ainda estou aqui)
Ainda Estou Aqui (I’m Still Here), winner of the Best International Feature Film at the 97th Academy Awards (2025), tells the powerful true story of Rubens Paiva’s arrest and disappearance in 1970s Rio de Janeiro and his wife Eunice’s relentless fight for the truth amid Brazil’s military dictatorship (1964–1985).
Based on the novel by Marcelo Rubens Paiva—son of Rubens and Eunice—the film portrays the Paiva family’s struggle to uncover Rubens’ fate in a nation gripped by political repression. The trauma of her husband's disappearance drives Eunice to study law, ultimately becoming a leading advocate for Indigenous rights in Brazil.
We invite the MSU community and the general public to a free screening and discussion on political oppression, censorship, fear, trauma, democratic challenges, and social upheaval. Faculty members will facilitate the conversation, encouraging critical engagement with the film’s historical and contemporary relevance.
This event is free and open to the public.
Agenda
5:30 PM: Screening to be presented by Janette Nuñez (MSU Libraries) and Saulo Gouveia (Romance and Classical Studies)
7:45 PM (immediately after the screening): Discussion panel featuring:
a. Peter Beattie, History
b. Saulo Gouveia, Romance and Classical Studies
c. María Isabel Espinoza, Sociology
d. Rocío Quispe Agnoli, Romance and Classical Studies
