Session Type: Invited Speaker Session
This session foregrounds the research and theory behind professional development for educators working in racially and ethnically diverse schools. Based on the knowledge base informing a summer institute designed by faculty and graduate students at one college of education, this session will inspire other educational researchers who focus on issues of race, pedagogy and inequality to translate their theory into practice and provide the critical frameworks and analysis to foster best practices in racially and culturally diverse schools. The presenters are organized according to the four research-based themes of the summer institute: Why Reimagining?; Racial and Cultural Literacy; Equity Pedagogy; and Culturally Sustaining Leadership.
