Determine what would help teachers in your school become more aware of their own (as well as their students) cultural identities and the role cultural identity plays in their teaching practices and the dynamics within their classrooms.
Create a 6- to 8-slide multimedia presentation to present a research-based summary and reflection on the topic of cultural identities and teaching. Address the following questions in your summary and reflection:
How do class, race, power, gender, and privilege impact education and learning?
What are some policies and practices you could put in place for determining student learning needs, placing students in appropriate learning contexts, and ensuring full access to the curriculum for all students?
What are some differences among the diverse group of students, teachers, administrators, and staff at your school? What are some implications of the differences among these groups? How might you incorporate the differences in cultures as assets for teaching and learning?
