Cultivating Social Change Through Our Practice

This final project encompasses a comprehensive reflection on: a) your practice as a teacher/educator; b) knowing your students; and c) the thoughtful selection of literature and instructional materials, to help you and your students understand social issues that impact their self-perceptions and their life opportunities.

Context:

What can you still add or change to reflect and promote equity and social change among your students?
Choose a poster, lithography, photography, illustration, etc. that you may want to add as part of your classroom dcor as a source to ignite interaction, empower your students, and promote equity and retention. Explain your choice.
Interaction:

Describe how you are trying to structure your interactions, so they will make your students feel safe in your classroom.
State what you do to motivate your students and to promote their self-confidence by setting high expectations and building alliances with them
What kind of feedback do you give to your students on their assignments?
Do you have classroom interactions regarding college, jobs, or professions? Explain
What can you do to assist your colleagues to understand the impact of their classroom talk and interactions?
