In this webinar, explore questions around issues of inclusive pedagogy and curriculum within Economics & Social Studies classes.

Description

We will begin the dialogue with a mini-lesson on the Community Cultural Wealth framework by Dr. Tara Yosso, to introduce the concepts around cultural capital.

In addition, we will use a “World Cafe” protocol in the virtual space utilizing breakout rooms for rounds of small group conversation, and an opportunity for sharing the most valuable takeaways with the larger group. Through this process, we will bring to the surface the collective expertise in the room directly from the classroom practitioners.
