43.077-2 - Critical Praxis, Intersectionality, and Truth-Telling in Secondary and Postsecondary Education

Sun, April 7, 8:00 to 9:30am, Metro Toronto Convention Centre, Floor: 800 Level, Hall F

Session Type: Roundtable Session

Abstract

This panel explores truth telling in secondary and post-secondary settings. Intersectionality or the simultaneity of race, gender, class as systems of inequality and sites of resistance is a conceptual guidepost. The first paper identifies challenges of teacher education vis-à-vis student worldviews and professional development in a Post-NCLB era transitioning into a Post-Truth society. The second paper delves into the ways in which high school teachers engage in self-reflection about their positionality while teaching ethnic studies. The third paper provides a portrait of how multi-modal pedagogies validate and empower Latinx students in a high school credit recovery program. The fourth paper provides a window into how high school teachers engage in healing praxis within their classrooms via ethnic studies.
