Strategies For Educators: Critical Literacy as a Tool for Equity, Deeper Understanding, and Critical Thinking
Facilitators: Anja Filan, Susan Park
*Times are Listed in EST
Early Bird deadline: September 22, 2023
Join us in this workshop to walk through critical thinking skills first hand. Educators will interact with a text as a learner and engage with critical literacy strategies. Practice examples will be tied directly to our resource, “Critical Literacy: Teaching Students How to Think Versus What to Think” . Afterwards, educators will see direct examples of how to support students in addressing race, power, privilege, stereotypes, and bias with a critical literacy lens. Lesson and work samples will model students' responses and educators will leave with a deeper understanding of helping students have tools to understand power, perspective, and positionality in text and the world around them.
