| EDUC 205 - Equity in Educational Settings |
|
An overview of current issues and research related to race, class, culture, language, and other social factors in schools across the United States. The concept of intersectionality is used to look across these factors in order to explore ways in which these issues impact groups in different ways within the P-12 educational system. Using the "intersectionality" frame helps to create a lens to look at social factors related to who is succeeding in school settings and how these schools operate to meet the needs of children and their families. Students examine research from education and the social sciences. The course introduces culturally relevant pedagogy and analyzes teaching practices in order to equip students with effective models to teach all children and partner with all families.
