Cultural Responsiveness and Inclusivity of Diverse Students (K-12) | Teaching Channel

Are you searching for strategies to make your classroom more culturally responsive for, and inclusive of, all your students? This online course for teachers is designed for K-12 educators who are looking to dig deeper into their own teaching practices and explore strategies for infusing cultural responsiveness and inclusivity. This course begins by discussing the evolution of cultural responsiveness and the importance of prioritizing social-emotional well-being not just for students, but for teachers too. From there, teachers learn specific strategies to adapt and rethink lessons and best practices they already have in existence in order to make them more culturally relevant and to accelerate student engagement and learning. The framework of intersectionality is introduced, as well as impactful ways to recognize and attend to intersectionality that is inclusive of all aspects of culture. Specific culturally responsive and inclusive classroom management strategies for both the physical and digital classroom are shared, and teachers will explore ways to create a more inclusive classroom community built on self-awareness, self-efficacy, trust, and belongingness. Strategies for tackling sensitive topics such as race and racism, as well as disability and ableism, are also shared. Finally, teachers will learn what it means to be a global citizen and they will explore strategies for empowering students to become changemakers. By the end of this continuing education course, teachers will feel more confident and successful in their quest to embed cultural responsiveness and inclusivity into their own teaching practices.
