We must always remember that the students are looking to us as examples. That gives us the responsibility to address issues and react to situations in ways that keep everyone safe while encouraging growth.

I'm committed to continue learning about anti-racist teaching and assuming that that work is never finished

The classroom culture, even in a STEM field, must always be moving in the actively anti-racist direction. There is plenty of room to integrate these ideals and it will only add to students' academic enrichment.

My hope is for my mindset and actions to be authentic and show each student that I truly care about them. Getting to know them on deeper level is important and will help gain trust. To actively address hurtful things, as a white male, will help create a safe space on our campus and crate more inclusive spaces for all.

The students are always looking to you, the leader, for how to respond to situations in the classroom. Not responding sends a message, whether you think it does or not.

I want to make sure that everyone feels safe to be honest, but to understand that if they hurt someone else, they should try to better explain what they mean because maybe they didn’t explain it in the best way.

As a teacher, I'd like my mindset and actions to be transparent from day, and consistent. Managing clear expectations is incredibly important and I want students to know that they are valued and that our class can be a safe space for uncomfortable conversations.

While less formal than a classroom setting, our interactions outside the classroom I think are also more likely to include troubling pieces because the students are less "on". The work is vitally important there as well.

Set the tone and create the culture from day one. Be willing to have tough conversations in the moment and implement the "ouch moment" so that students know you are addressing the issue, and later have individual conversation with the student. Continue to grow and learn how to be actively anti-racist and provide a safe environment for students and my colleagues.

Approaching students from a place of honesty and open communication is a  mindset always worth aspiring to. I think framing conversations by saying “we are all still learning,” is a fantastic way to engage students while still allowing for fruitful, constructive conversation.

I want to instill my notion of being honest everywhere. Everyone makes mistakes, but should aim to mitigate those same mistakes moving forward.

I want to continue to learn and absorb all things that promote a truly inclusive community for all. And hold true to being an advocate for those who haven’t always felt advocated for. Creating a space of safety and acceptance
