GSI: Navigating Eco-anxiety and Denials in Teaching the Climate Crisis
March 19, 2025 @ 4:30 pm–6:30 pm
Groundswell will host Dr. Kevin Holohan, Associate Professor of Educational Foundations at GVSU, for a presentation on his research regarding eco-anxiety; particularly with the lens on climate change in the classroom. Dr. Holohan will discuss how to address the anxiety that climate change can incite amongst students and educators and how to create a safe environment of learning when teaching the topic.
These PLO events are open to any educators interested in learning more about Groundswell, those who are actively working on their student projects already, or those looking to learn more about researching environmental and community issues!
Additional details including total SCECH credits, how to RSVP, and other information will be provided closer to the date of the event.
