Frame your questions within the theories. amperreras https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/750217773 2020-09-16 02:11:46 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/750217773 Power dschas https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753424233 I am thinking about the ideas that Power is incredibly hard to go against. How do we as teachers go take a stand against injustice, and continue on even if those in power strongly push back... so much so that it potentially puts your job at risk. Is it a position of power in itself to be able to back off if things get "risky"? Ex: what can an expat teacher get away with that a local teacher probably couldn't...]]> 2020-09-16 22:52:37 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753424233 Classroom context csimpson39 https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753424699 At times I'm struggling with how to bring more of this work into science classes which have a very heavy content focus (never enough time to cover what's required for the AP exam).  
How do I ensure I'm making meaningful changes and not "celebrating" when I try and bring in more equity pieces?]]> 2020-09-16 22:52:56 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753424699 How can we best begin to implement social justice at a macro level during COVID? bbaran2 https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753424758 2020-09-16 22:52:59 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753424758 What is the buy in with parents and the community? supafreeze https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753424785 When we think about abolitionist teaching, it is about dismantling power structures that oppress different populations in society. Based on what I have seen happen to social leaders and activists in Colombia doing this work, and the apparent resistance to social change by the leadership, how well received would these ideas be in the context of the school? How can we educate parents and leaders to make things better for everyone in the country? ]]> 2020-09-16 22:53:00 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753424785 Thinking about the abolitionist movement and how deeply embedded white supremacy is in our schools, how can we reset education if it is so political ? What are the next steps? https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753425025 2020-09-16 22:53:13 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753425025 How can we expose our YOUNG students to this without pushing too far, or how much do we want to push? mduque8 https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753425100 2020-09-16 22:53:17 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753425100 What is my part and what can I do to ensure culturally relevant curriculum and experiences for our Colombian students when our curriculum is already so set and Americanized (i.e. Lucy Caulkins and Bridges)? mkieren https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753425193 2020-09-16 22:53:20 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753425193 Even though, we live in Colombia, a multicultural country, our classes are not multicultural at all. We think that the social studies teacher is the responsible for teaching about races, etnias, religions and cultures. We need to reflect and find a way to involve culture in all classes claritabetancurarcila https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753426263

What are some steps towards doing this? ]]> 2020-09-16 22:54:29 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753426593 A common thread that I saw in the readings was that we should make sure we are culturally aware and involved in our students backgrounds and reality. What do you think that looks like for us? mkieren https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753427802 2020-09-16 22:55:26 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753427802 Approaches to teaching bbaran2 https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753427996 How can we move away from the "cultural night" ways of teaching and move into a more abolitionist approach?]]> 2020-09-16 22:55:35 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753427996 Pushback csimpson39 https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753428703 What are strategies to have ready in case there is push back from students or parents after including justice work in our daily teaching?]]> 2020-09-16 22:56:05 UTC https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753428703 When I hear different scholars talking about "White supremacy" and anti-racism, I wonder if they are also thinking about other races, rather than just black people being oppressed by white people. I see few of them that consider anti racism general for all races, all human kind. Perhaps I need to read more and deeper, since this is a whole new world for me. claritabetancurarcila https://padlet.com/amperreras/hjopc4rh0lcrlvb2/wish/753446457
