Leading Through the Lens of Equity: Incorporating Diverse Literature

Participants will build their leadership capacity to engage in critical conversations through the lens of equity with regards to the inherent challenges faced by students with disabilities, children of color, LGBTQ, English language learners, socioe-conomically disadvantaged, as well as unaccompanied youth. Taking into consideration the importance of representation within all facets of education, participants will work together to examine the importance of diverse literature and its’ incorporation into traditional unit plans and curriculum maps. Participants will further examine practical ways to embed diverse literature into everyday instruction and utilize such literature to engage learners and educators in critical conversations about social justice and racism. This class is designed for school and program administrators, teachers, and emerging leaders. Instructor: Dr. Ebony Green
