Critical Pedagogical Encounters: Teaching for Social Justice in the Classroom
Billy Huff (Communication)
Critical pedagogy includes developing inclusive curricula, encouraging critical thinking, de-centering teacher authority, facilitating student-centered learning, and maximizing access to instructional resources for all students. Billy will explore how sociopolitical relations are reflected in educational practices, and offer strategies for supporting social justice in the classroom.
