Workshop on Academic Civility - Week Two: Analyzing Dialogic Civility & Cultural Logics

The second part of week two of the Workshop on Academic Civility asks you to consider the role that dialogic civility and rhetorical listening play in classroom environments.

After reading the "angry emails" blog posts by UW Green Bay Psychology professor Ryan Martin, found here and here, consider the following questions.

• What cultural logics inform the use of email and other technology by students? Faculty?
• How might you incorporate this kind of dialogue in your course about email, technology, or other "hot button" issues of academic civility?
