INST 2011 - Equity Literacy in Education: Why Race and Culture Matter

Hours: 3
Exploration of the U.S. educational system, a familiar structure and system of the public sphere, as a way to examine the ideas of power and privilege in shaping one’s identity and opportunity. Thinking in critical ways about how schools and the broader society construct knowledge, whose knowledge or truth “counts,” and the ways in which multiple perspectives can and should inform critical thinking and decision-making. The development of change agents are encouraged, as what it means to be culturally competent and responsive is considered, as well as work towards social equity and justice.
