SWAEC- Culturally Responsive Teaching



Culturally Responsive Teaching is a mindset that embraces pedagogical practices that respond to the cultural needs of children. As educators, we must first reflect upon and examine our own personal beliefs, values, biases, and cultural exposure and how these factors influence our teaching and relationships with others. Through a 6-hour interactive learning session and personal and professional reflection, participants will explain the need for Culturally Responsive Teaching in our classrooms in order to form an adaptive mindset and approach that supports our most culturally and linguistically diverse students, explore the meaning of culture and cultural memberships that inform our identities of self and others, to include our students and families, and identify two sociopolitical contexts that result in unequal opportunities for children in our schools. The book Culturally Responsive Teaching & The Brain, by Zaretta Hammond, will be provided for each participant.
