Examining Complexities in Practice

Barbara Martin | Susan Foster

Education / Professional Development

Preparing Culturally Informed Educators: Examining Complexities in Practice aims to prepare mainstream educators to work effectively with diverse learners. Though not an exhaustive review of what is required for mastery of culturally informed instruction, this approach does equip educators with content knowledge, pedagogical skills, and professional dispositions necessary to provide diverse learners with equitable educational opportunities. Chapters explore theoretical foundations and challenges of culturally informed pedagogy, culturally informed reading education for English learners (EL) and all learners, and implications of recent neurological research.
