ED 523 Culturally Sustaining Education

Teacher candidates will reflect on their identities, inquire into the experience of others, and examine individual, interpersonal, institutional, and systemic barriers that limit educational opportunities and outcomes for many students. The course draws on history, policy, theory, and praxis to enable candidates to draw from students' cultural, religious, family, intellectual, and personal assets in strategies that effectively support all students' personal and academic success in a diverse society.
