Join this workshop especially for K-12 and college faculty on how to set up and moderate a Common Ground for Action (CGA) online deliberative forum. This is a TWO DAY, TWO PART workshop. Part 1 is Wednesday December 5th 10am PDT/1pm ET; Part 2 is Thursday December 6th @ 10am PDT/1pm ET. Please plan to attend both parts of this workshop.

Part one of the workshop is: Wednesday December 5th 10am PDT/1pm ET; Part two of the workshop is Thursday December 6th @ 10am PDT/1pm ET. Please plan to attend both sessions. You will learn how to set up a CGA forum and how to moderate using the platform. We will discuss what the responsibilities of a CGA moderator are and hacks and tricks for moderating, especially moderating a forum of students. We will then work in partners to set up and get you hands on experience moderating a forum. We will conclude with questions and answers about how to integrate CGA into your classroom, ideas about assignments, and how to collaborate on CGA forums with other faculty. This section will use Zoom, a free screenshare and audio conference program. You will need a computer with internet access, speakers, and preferably a microphone (not required, but helpful).
