Through the discussion of theory, research and practical examples, this reflexive session enables educators to think about how they can embrace a more inclusive, antiracist, culturally responsive and dialogic philosophy of teaching where exploring – however difficult and ethically challenging it may be – our pupils’ cultural, linguistic, ethnic and religious identities within the curriculum can be meaningful and ultimately educational.
Three core questions underpin this interactive seminar/ session:
1. As educators, do we really know who our students are? Do/should we care?
2. Are we aware of the wider social, community and cultural issues that many of our students are living through?
3. How do we get to know our students and ensure that their views, interests, lived experiences, aspirations inform and guide our pedagogical practices? What strategies can we think of?
Participants will:
- Learn about real life case studies, theory and research within culturally responsive pedagogy (CRP)
2. Get an insight into the ethnographic research conducted by the speaker (Dr Aminul Hoque) of young Bangladeshi Muslim pupils from East London and how CRP is vital to their learning and education
3. Reflect and gain practical tips and strategies on how they can develop their own culturally responsive pedagogic practice fitting for their setting
Suitable for all members.
