Critical Collaborative Inquiry as Repair and Renewal: Teachers and Teacher Educators Co-Constructing Justice-Centered Education

Sat, April 26, 3:20 to 4:50pm MDT (3:20 to 4:50pm MDT), The Colorado Convention Center, Floor: Meeting Room Level, Room 704

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

In this symposium, a team of five teacher educators who teach and research collaboratively will share how our pursuit of a more just and humanizing vision of teaching and teacher education informs and is informed by our students’ research and practice in their classrooms. Drawing upon practitioner inquiry and justice-centered traditions, we theorize and examine how critical collaborative inquiry by teacher educators and the pre-service teachers we teach supports the ongoing struggle, resistance, and redirection necessary for change. Taken together, we argue that this shared inquiry harnesses the collective power and capacity of teachers and teacher educators to imagine and solve complex educational challenges, advancing equity, repair, and renewal through the study and reinvention of everyday teaching and learning practices.
