Welcome!
Welcome!
Welcome to ED 277! I am happy to have you in my course this semester!
This semester we will be examining multicultural perspectives, principles, and practices to prepare you to become culturally competent educators and communicators. You will learn the significance of advocating for diversity, and understanding a student's cultural background, assets, and strengths. You will learn to create positive and inclusive learning environments and experiences for all of your learners. You will also acquire strategies to develop and deliver culturally responsive teaching and instruction. You will learn to utilize authentic assessments as a primary tool to guide your instructional devision making. And finally, you will conduct research on issues and challenges facing students and educators in today's culturally diverse classrooms.
This week we will spend some time getting ourselves ready for the semester to start. If you are anything like me, it takes a little bit of time to get back into the swing of things. This first week, we will start off by getting acclimated with the website, syllabus, and getting to know each other. I can't wait to learn a little about you!
