EmpowerED Workshop: Contrapower Harassment in Higher Education
Workshop/Training | EmpowerED Series
This hour-long workshop will explore the concept of contrapower harassment, where individuals with less institutional power (such as students) harass those with more authority (such as faculty or staff). Participants will learn about the dynamics of contrapower harassment, its impact on college and university environments, and strategies for responding to and preventing these behaviors.
EmpowerED Workshop: Active Learning Strategies for In-Person Courses
Workshop/Training | EmpowerED Series
