Mentalization and Developing Epistemic Trust in the Classroom

How to understand the deep meaning of what students express through actions, behavior, goals, needs, verbal and non-verbal communication? After all, a wrong interpretation can be perceived as destructive for the atmosphere in the classroom. Join a webinar by Dana Kline, Ph.D., a psychologist at Pacific Graduate Institute, and learn about key principles of the psychological basis of mentalization, a mental perspective theory that emphasizes the ability to understand one's own mind and the minds of others. The presentation will consider how adopting a mentalizing stance by building epistemic trust will contribute to practical and understanding-oriented goals for creating an emotionally safe environment for learning and teaching.

Participation in the webinars is free. Webinars will be held in English with simultaneous translation into Ukrainian.
