Equity and “Core” Teaching Practices Across Disciplines: Bridging Constructs and Communities to Support Students’ Flourishing

Fri, April 12, 3:05 to 4:35pm, Pennsylvania Convention Center, Floor: Level 100, Room 112B

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

This symposium features empirical findings from studies that examine the intersection of core practices and equity. Core teaching practices -practices that can be used and adapted by teachers across grades and disciplines- have been identified as an approach that has the potential of advancing learning. Yet, some scholars have raised concerns about their decentering of equity and justice, which they see as key to supporting all students’ learning. The four papers in this symposium focus on core practices across disciplines and grade levels, and use simulations to support their application in ways that support learning in equitable ways. The scholar in the symposium aims to connect the work of core practices to equity in order to advance justice in education.
