Putting Culturally Responsive Teaching and Learning into Practice

Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) is an inclusive educational approach that values diverse backgrounds, promotes self-reflection, and connects classroom content to real-life experiences. This presentation will explore the development and implementation of a faculty-made, faculty-led professional development course designed for educators interested in becoming culturally responsive teachers. As both designers and facilitators of the course, we will share significant findings revealed in the research surrounding the best practices and benefits of Culturally Responsive Teaching in the synchronous and asynchronous classroom during this session. Dr. Fierro Scukanec identities as a woman, BIPOC, and a faculty member. Prof. Kennedy identifies as a Queer woman.
