Center for Culturally Responsive Teaching and Learning


Description

In this webinar, Sharroky Hollie, Assistant Professor at California State University, Dominguez Hills, and Executive Director of the Center for Culturally Responsive Teaching and Learning, will define specifically what culturally and linguistically responsive teaching (CLR) is in the context of all students. In addition to learning the definition, participants will gain a better understanding of how CLR especially benefits underserved students and how the four CLR pedagogies, which include a myriad of strategies and activities, are rooted in differentiated instruction. This webinar is aimed at educators in need of more specific strategies and activities in the areas of reading, academic vocabulary, and classroom management for all students.
