SUMMARY:Mid-Career Magic: How Culturally Responsive Teaching Can Keep Us Afloat (Spring 2026)
DESCRIPTION:If you’ve spent a decade or two in the classroom\, you’ve likely settled into a good groove. You know what you’re doing. You’ve seen a lot of stuff. You’ve made it through a global pandemic. Congratulations! Despite all this hard-won wisdom\, however\, you might also feel tired. Maybe a little concerned about your students and the changes you’ve seen in them over the years. Maybe even a little bored. You’re not alone! In this discussion-based webinar\, we will look at the challenges we face as mid-career instructors and how Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) might help spur the curiosity about where our subjects and our students’ experiences intersect. According to Madeline Will and Ileana Najarro in Education Week\, “Culturally responsive teaching means using students’ customs\, characteristics\, experience\, and perspectives as tools for better classroom instruction.” What does the emergence of CRT mean for an instructor with a decade or even two’s worth of experience in the classroom? \nAccommodations\nThe NED is committed to providing universal access to all of our events\, we’d like to discover how we can make the event more inclusive so you can fully participate! \nMachine generated captions are available in real-time for all Zoom events\, however human generated CART (live caption) service and ASL interpretation can be requested with advanced notice (2 weeks) to make the event more accessible. \nPlease\, let us know of any disability-related accommodations that will facilitate your full participation. \n Request Accommodations\nQuestions?\nContact facilitator Kelli Hallsten Erickson. \nRegistration Required\nUse the RSVP tool below to register. After registering\, a calendar invite will be sent to you as a reminder of the event start date.
