Session Type: Symposium
The papers in this symposium attend to the narratives, counternarratives and tensions in supporting teachers’ learning and pedagogical shifts in Science, Literacy and Social Studies needed for more equitable educational systems. Specifically, the papers consider teachers' unique learning of disciplinary asset-based discourses and practices that can bring students’ inquiries and sensemaking that builds on their cultural and linguistic funds of knowledge. These shifts include the development of teachers’ and students’ new identities and tools to center all, but specifically BIPOC students’ languages, disciplinary discourses and multicultural ways of being across different subject content areas like Science, Social Studies and Literacy.
