Charting the Landscape of Research on Teachers of Color and Indigenous Teachers
Sat, April 15, 11:40am to 1:10pm CDT (11:40am to 1:10pm CDT), Swissôtel Chicago, Floor: Event Centre, 1st Floor, Vevey 3Session Type: Symposium
Abstract
Benefits of teachers of color and indigenous teachers (TOCIT) go far beyond representation and student academic success. For example, TOCIT reduces rates of disproportionate discipline (Shirrell et al., 2021; contributes to socio-emotional learning (Scherer, 2022); and shows great insight into racialized experiences of students of color (Kohli, 2009). There is a need to understand how TOCIT are recruited, retained, educated, and supported. Extending from the 2022 Handbook of Research on Teachers of Color and Indigenous Teachers (Gist & Bristol, 2022), this symposium presentation highlights and expands critical scholarship on TOCIT across six key areas: (1) Recruitment & Retention; (2) Program Design, Pedagogy & Leadership; (3) Human Resource Development & Induction; (4) Mentorship & Professional Development; (5) Intersectionality; and (6) Educational Impact.
