Video: Using Circles in Higher Education Classrooms
Ian Marder, Lindsey Pointer and Alanna Ojibway share the outcome of a workshop held with the Restorative Pedagogy Network. The workshop explored the use of circle process in university classrooms to build relationships, establish group norms, deepen engagement with class material, and more. The presentation is intended to support those working in higher education to begin or expand use of circles in their classrooms.
Dr. Lindsey Pointer recently participated in a roundtable on Restorative Justice Pedagogy hosted by Dr. Wendy O’Brien from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and Dr. Ian Marder (Maynooth University).
