Culturally responsive teaching (CRT) is an essential practice to equitably educate multilingual learners (MLs) and support ML families. However, understanding what CRT looks like when implemented in schools and classrooms, especially in distance learning and hybrid environments, can be challenging to pin down. In this webinar, we will focus on sharing practical, research-based look-fors, tools, and strategies that you can use to integrate CRT for MLs. Join us for an engaging, interactive session to get new ideas about how CRT can become an integral part of your practice no matter what your instructional model looks like this year.

The statistics are sobering: now that lockdown is behind us, we can expect one out of three students to return to in-person learning showing signs of mental or emotional distress. For our multilingual learners (MLs), the numbers are even more staggering.

For Doug Fisher, Nancy Frey, Dominique Smith, and John Hattie, rushing back to the “old normal” may very well be the “greatest travesty that can arise for our schools.” Because the “old normal” won’t accelerate learning, won’t reignite engagement, won’t restore social-emotional well-being. Instead, we should draw on the many lessons learned so we can take advantage of this unprecedent moment in time to create better systems for schooling.

Fifteen months since the pandemic tested and tested again our school systems, we now face the biggest test of all: Where to next? Is it enough to rush back to the “old normal” without benefiting from the many lessons learned? Will the “old normal” accelerate learning, reignite engagement, restore social-emotional well-being?

In their upcoming Rebound webinar, presenters Doug Fisher, Nancy Frey, Dominique Smith, and John Hattie offer a resounding “No!” Instead, they demonstrate how to take advantage of this unprecedented opportunity to reboot teaching and learning as we know it so we can move forward with fresh optimism and better systems for schooling.

What does equity for multilingual learners (MLs) mean in post-pandemic schools? This webinar will build on the authors’ recent publication that addresses how educators, on the one hand, can recognize their students’ cultural and linguistic identities, backgrounds, multiliteracies, and complex experiences and, on the other hand, how they can engage in critical collaborative practices that champion equity for MLs.

We strive to empower our students to lead their own inquiry, discover knowledge, and construct approaches to solving real-life challenges. Often, though, we make the mistake of designing learning experiences that burden students with the unrealistic expectation of expertise that hasn’t yet been developed. The solution: proper scaffolding for surface, deep, and transfer learning. In this webinar, Michael McDowell will discuss practices that strategically support students as they move from novices to experts in core academics.
