• In Event: Culturally Responsive, Culturally Relevant, Well-Being, Disruptions in Classrooms

Abstract

Culturally relevant pedagogy has been hailed as the teaching approach that supports positive social and academic outcomes of students from marginalized community students. However, most studies have focused on the curriculum and instructional practices of teachers instead of classroom management. In this study, we highlight the culturally responsive warm demander practices of one African American teacher.
