The Little Book of Restorative Teaching Tools for Online Learning
Creating Restorative Learning Experiences Online
This book provides instructions for experiential games and activities that are intentionally designed for online learning spaces. It builds upon the core concepts of restorative pedagogy introduced in The Little Book of Restorative Teaching Tools (2020) to guide trainers and facilitators to overcome perceived limitations of virtual training and lean into the tools and possibilities that are unique to online spaces to create meaningful, engaging restorative learning environments.
- Provides guidance for how to overcome common challenges in online learning spaces such as a lack of informal time to socialize, attention fatigue, and limited opportunities for movement.
- Features games and activities to help you facilitate genuine relationship-building, deep understanding of the restorative justice paradigm, confidence using restorative skills, and understanding of structural injustices in restorative justice processes.
An ideal handbook for educators, program directors, trainers, consultants, and community group leaders, this book will serve as a catalyst for greater creativity and philosophical alignment in the teaching of restorative practices across contexts.
- Introduces games and activities as effective and dynamic tools for teaching restoratively.
- Provides in-depth instructions for games that allow learners to experience and more deeply understand restorative practices while building relationships and improving skills.
