Using the Critical Friends’ Perspective for Addressing Difficult Situations in Our Field

October 15, 2026 - FREE

Dr. Stephen Kroeger

This FREE webinar will provide background and context on using this perspective in decision-making. Dr. Kroeger is known for his lively presentations and use of a cartoon format to illustrate concepts and to teach critical skills to individuals with disabilities. He will use the critical friends framework to illustrate how we can recruit colleagues to participate in constructive problem-solving when faced with a challenge or dilemma in teaching (or life!).

The discussion introduces diverse perspectives from participants, is constructive and supportive, and allows the person presenting the challenge to use input from friends. The presenter can then assess and use the feedback to identify ways to address a dilemma. This approach recognizes and acknowledges diverse perspectives, provides a supportive platform for discussing challenges with others in a meaningful and time-limited manner.
