Mapping the Field: The Role of Space in Educational Equity

Fri, April 25, 9:50 to 11:20am MDT (9:50 to 11:20am MDT), The Colorado Convention Center, Floor: Terrace Level, Bluebird Ballroom Room 2A

Session Type: Structured Poster Session

Abstract

This structured poster session includes six posters that investigate the critical role of space in advancing educational equity. Space is undertheorized in education but highly consequential for teaching and teacher education at multiple levels of scale, from physical movements and arrangements in the classroom, to resources and residential patterns of a school community and district, to influences of national policies and global patterns of immigration and imperialism. Drawing on various frameworks and methodologies such as critical cartography, education journey mapping, Interaction Geography, and participation boundaries, these posters help elucidate how teachers and teacher educators can work with students, schools, and communities to interact with space at multiple levels, envisioning how space can be used to advance educational equity.
