A major component of engaging in public scholarship is building connections with the communities from which our scholarship emerges. This breakout session, facilitated by professors heavily involved and invested in K-12 teaching and/or community activism, will facilitate a discussion and respond to questions related to how they center social justice school/community work in their lives and in their research. More importantly, the session will provide graduate students with techniques on how to develop community partnerships for educational justice. How can we build or expand partnerships with schools/communities? How do we fulfill academic responsibilities while being committed to local, national, and/or global change? How can we encourage our academic institutions to be more supportive of action-oriented, on-the-ground social justice work? This breakout session will support graduate students’ to further explore opportunities for developing as change agents.
