16.041 - Teacher Listening and Social Justice: Listening to Enact Justice and Transformation in the Pursuit of Education
Thu, April 16, 2:15 to 3:45pm, Marriott, Floor: Sixth Level, MinnesotaSession Type: Symposium
Abstract
If justice, at its base, is conceived of all human beings having unique value and dignity, then how can our interactions in educational settings and beyond recognize and respond to these basic assumptions? This panel draws together scholars who consider what putting listening at the center of interactions in educational settings means for enacting justice, theoretically and empirically. Listening to enact social justice in educational settings means re-conceptualizing and broadening our ideas of what it means to teach. Approaching teaching from a listening stance to enact justice offers new perspectives on how to reimagine schooling interaction by interaction and thereby, how to re-imagine and work to realize a more socially just world.
