Culturally Responsive Teaching: 5 Strategies for Educators - 6 views

  • Using traditional teaching methods, educators may default to teaching literature by widely accepted classic authors: William Shakespeare, J.D. Salinger, and Charles Dickens, for example, adhering to widely accepted interpretations of the text. Culturally responsive teaching, on the other hand, acknowledges that there’s nothing wrong with traditional texts, Childers-McKee says, but strives to include literature from other cultures, parts of the world, and by diverse authors. It also focuses on finding a “hook and anchor” to help draw students into the content using their past experiences.
  • When integrated into classroom instruction, culturally responsive strategies can have important benefits such as: Strengthening students’ sense of identity  Promoting equity and inclusivity in the classroom Engaging students in the course material Supporting critical thinking

    Hi there, Joe! I'm so glad that you posed this question in response to this great resource. As somebody with several ACEs myself, I think that using a good mix of empathy and sympathy is a great place to start. Put yourself in their shoes and think of what you would have liked for your teacher to have done to help you, whether or not you share that experience with the student. Also, your colleagues are on your team, so pick their brains for what works for them. Lastly, educate yourself and learn about what you can do for your student, and from your student! Sometimes it can be as simple as asking your student what you can do to help and hopefully they could find a way to communicate their needs.
