Ethnic studies is expansive, complex, and dynamic; therefore, teaching it should be, too! Whether you are interested in teaching a standalone ethnic studies course, want to learn more about incorporating the concepts in your content area, or are already implementing them in your classroom and want some fresh instructional strategies, there is something for everyone. Following a review of the foundations and history of ethnic studies, this course focuses on the tools to teach them. Explore anti-racist and equity-focused assessment strategies, as you discover a wealth of resources, lesson plans, and unit ideas to build your curriculum bank. Consider how to approach complex discussions and prepare to utilize Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR) as one method for engaging both the classroom and the community. By the end of the course, you will have reflected on your personal and professional identities and the ways they interplay with your instruction, and will feel ready to approach ethnic studies with a fresh set of strategies and perspectives! 

We recommend taking course 5362: History and Foundations of Ethnic Studies before enrolling in 5324 (this course): Designing and Implementing Ethnic Studies to gain a deeper understanding and enhance your overall learning experience.

This course format builds from module to module in a way that allows you to work through each of the essential ideas in smaller, more focused segments. You’ll find the same great resources and applicable assignments, distributed over 10 modules.
