As a teacher, are you wondering what you can say in class about race or racism or gender and sexuality? Are you feeling pushback in your own school or context or pressure to avoid topics that have been labeled as "divisive"? Are you curious about how to support all students in your classes and how to build trust with parents and families in more sustained and enduring ways? If so, this course is for you. This course supports teachers looking for tools to reach all students and families—– even as teachers’ and students’ rights are increasingly under threat and as topics such as identity, race, and gender have become increasingly contested in schools. This course strives to provide practical tips for teachers as well as guidance for collaboration and solidarity during these contentious times. We begin by defining concepts associated with inclusive teaching practices and culturally sustaining pedagogies.

Educators and students alike are in a stressful teaching and learning climate. However, by practicing a culturally sustaining pedagogy that recognizes and honors student cultures, identities, and backgrounds, we can make the classroom environment warm and welcoming for all students. In this module, we define culturally sustaining pedagogies, we explore strategies and tools conducive to culturally sustaining approaches, and we consider how we might leverage such tools in our own teaching contexts.
