Examining Ourselves in Service of Our Mission: Teaching Leadership for Social Justice

Sun, April 15, 2:45 to 4:15pm, Park Central Hotel New York, Floor: Mezzanine Level, Manhattan A Room

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

Responding to the call for introspection in our, this session opens space for faculty to engage in critical self-reflection and critical dialogue about their experience preparing school leaders who advance social justice. Specifically, six faculty members selected through purposive and reputational sampling and embodying a variety of socio-cultural identities share how their perceptions of themselves as a constellation of socio-cultural identities, combined with their frames of reference and context for practice, impact their meaning making, action taking, and pedagogical practice related to the preparation of school leaders who will advance social justice. Building on earlier work, this session employs the practice of critical consciousness, the application of intersectionality, and the discipline of critical dialogue to discern key pedagogical implications.
