passion and purpose:
Social justice for change
Too often, students are assigned dumpster projects — those with little personal connection that end up in the trash after grading. We know that the best way to foster deep learning is through authentic experiences that build upon students' passions. Given our social-political climate, we believe that students should be self-advocates for the concerns of their community and use digital tools to tell personal stories about race, gender and economic inequities. The panel will share successful social justice practices from elementary through college and discuss ways to empower students to have a positive impact on their community, themselves and society.
