  • Beyond Inclusiveness: Implementing Culturally Responsive Pedagogy as an Accelerator for Real Learning Outcomes

    • Virtual

    This workshop goes beyond the surface with powerful, but practical low-floor, high-ceiling, culturally-responsive instructional strategies, discussion structures, test prep strategies, approaches to classroom management that maximize student voice and purposefully shift power to students and move past the myth of meritocracy and toward the “hidden” curriculum of success (networking, navigating systems, storytelling, etc.). These strategies are important inside the classroom, but this workshop will also support educators in applying these strategies in their work with community members, parents, and other stakeholders outside of the school building. 

    Participants attending will earn CEUs.
