Titre: Can we truly laugh about everything? humour in the classroom : balancing fun and respect
Auteur: Bogatti, Saul
Résumé: "Los Angeles, March 27, 2022. - During the Oscars award ceremony,
the host, a renowned comedian, interacts with the audience, who are
receptive to his jokes. The atmosphere in the theatre is relaxed and
everyone seems to be having a good time. Suddenly, the comedian
makes fun of an audience member who suffers an illness. Her husband
gets onto the stage and gives the comedian a resounding slap. A stunned
silence falls over the celebrity-filled venue. This anecdote already seems
to provide an answer to the question asked in the title. As teachers,
when we use humour in the classroom for pedagogical purposes, to
lighten the mood or for any other reason, what steps should we take to
make sure we don’t hurt anyone’s feelings, or, in the worst Hollywood
scenario, end up with a black eye? Let’s explore the topics to avoid and
the best practices to adopt when sharing a laugh with students." -- AQPC
