Webinar 3: Cultivating a Positive Class Climate 

How would you gauge your current class climate? Is it warm and inviting? Do all of your students feel seen and heard? 

As we engage in this topic, we warmly invite you to understand the importance of cultivating a positive class climate, beginning with your own self-assessment, and considering an assessment by your students! Class climate includes the physical space of the classroom as well as the emotional and psychological environment you create for your students. Having a positive class climate means that you are providing an equitable learning space for your students to access academic content, while also experiencing the physical and emotional safety in their environment. How is this accomplished?  

In this webinar, participants will be able to: 

• Self-evaluate their current class climate
  

• Reflect on classroom needs
  

• Explore practices to improve class climate
  

• Create actionable steps to create a more positive climate.
