Dr. Geneva Gay refers to Culturally Relevant/Culturally Responsive (CR) Pedagogy as a new lens to enhance your vision as you teach. What has this lens revealed to you about your teaching? What is the greatest "take away" from this training experience? en-us 2022-12-01 21:49:20 UTC 2022-12-06 13:15:49 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f390.png Collaborate with Students (Matt Jolly) https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409620499 My big take away is that my class needs to function to sustain cultures. But I cannot be an expert on my students' cultures. I can't do the work of sustaining those cultures. And students ARE experts on their own cultural experiences, so I need to partner with them to do that work. I need to be student-centered.]]> 2022-12-05 18:48:44 UTC https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409620499 Steve Peist biggest takeaways https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409621252 CRT is evolutionary not revolutionary and student inclusion may mean negotiating parts of our curriculum ]]> 2022-12-05 18:49:19 UTC https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409621252 https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409621839 Based on what I learned,  here is summary what I need to do: 
1- Help my students make new friends by initiating interactive introductory activities. Join them as they reveal themselves and I should share my own piece as well.
2- Divide them in groups and give them some time to make social and educational communication.
3- Group discussions and presentations, need to be well monitored the specific assignments of the members to ensure that everyone is involved, especially the reluctant and timid ones. Help my students to grow and help them develop their potential.
4- Planning for the classroom activities gives students opportunities to present their creative ideas.
Make it a solid routine to set up student-teacher interactions

This is great content and I feel like I have just scratched the surface.  I want to look for other trainings through other institutions to continue this work.  There is much work to be done in my classes and across my campus and district. ]]> 2022-12-05 18:51:56 UTC https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409624943 Jan Coolman https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409625168 It is all about awareness for me and for me to share with others.]]> 2022-12-05 18:52:05 UTC https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409625168 RiAnn H https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409625965 Connectedness create a lens of collective memory. Combining lenses allow for shared understandings and dispelling myths with and by people/students who are credible. ]]> 2022-12-05 18:52:41 UTC https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409625965 Mary Broding https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409913575 It reminds me that I am never done improving my courses for students. There is always something to consider and update.]]> 2022-12-06 00:25:36 UTC https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409913575 Take Away https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409915061 I found this very interesting. I think this is just the beginning of this subject. There are always ways to improve/add to this ~ it is definitely fluid. I don't think this is a "one and done" type subject. People are dynamic, so this subject will always be changing and seen through different POVs. ]]> 2022-12-06 00:27:10 UTC https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409915061 For me, this has been a very interesting lens in which to look at all of my teaching and other work at the college. I really think having this new lens will be very powerful for increasing student engagement and persistence/completion. - Andy B. https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409917378 2022-12-06 00:29:52 UTC https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409917378 Anna Chabrowski https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409920247 I think the best take away from this training is that even though I feel confident in what I do, there is such a huge area as far as teaching I have not touched. The course made me realize that. More for me to culturally grow for my students.]]> 2022-12-06 00:33:07 UTC https://padlet.com/eli2195827/CRTrainClose/wish/2409920247
