Course Description

Culturally sustaining pedagogies (CSP) is an innovative approach to teaching that Gloria Ladson-Billings referred to as Culturally Relevant Pedagogies 2.0, the remix. Within this class, students will learn about the evolution of this concept, how it is distinct from Culturally Relevant Pedagogies, while creating a dynamic, reflective space to explore how to apply CSP to their educational practice. This will involve dialogue circles centered around the themes that arise from the required text as well as issues students are grappling with in their educational practice. Additionally, there will be regular class trips to Tucson-based organizations that are using CSP in their work, and these experiences will further challenge students to creative apply CSP in their work.
