SESSION 2: 18.11.2025 15:00-16:45 CET

Every classroom is composed by differing social structures and dynamics. The students’ skills to cope with the challenges of the current world might also vary. During this early stage of adulthood when entering university studies, unexpected challenges might occur. Students might face internal factors that cause crisis, such as sudden illness of themselves or a student colleague, teacher or even a close relative. In addition, other factors such as pressure from the ever-increasing digitalisation and social media, new social structures and situations, and the years of studying might be challenging because of the forthcoming exams, new environments to be explored and roles to be taken. Due to these reasons the pressure to cope with the studies might become overwhelming and motivation to study decrease. 

As these life events or situations occur, sometimes unexpectedly, it is only human that these unforeseen situations or maybe crisis may emerge. During this webinar series we will focus on unexpected events and crisis, which needs actions or adaptations from the teacher to manage and support the individual students as well as the whole community of classroom.  

Amid crisis, the responsibility of making the classroom environment safe and encouraging space often falls on the teachers. However, teachers are not supernatural humans, and need support and skills to cope with the professional burden it might cause and a possibility to improve their crisis leadership skills. Questions that we will be learning and discussing include aspects such as; what approaches should we use when encountering crisis in the classroom, what are the resources teachers can refer to, and how can we build resilience among our students, and take care of our own well-being.
