This course is designed to improve general and special educators' ability to teach all students within schools (P-12) that are increasingly more diverse in regards to race, class, gender, home language, sexuality, and ability. This course addresses the root causes of the persistence of achievement gaps between groups of students (racial/ethnic, socioeconomic, linguistic, exceptionalities) and provides opportunities for teachers to deepen their understanding of the students they teach, learn new strategies for culturally relevant and inclusive pedagogy, and develop skills to work with systems and policies that affect children and youth.
