In the fall of 2021, the education deans of the CSU system crafted collectively a public-facing letter that asserts our collective dedication to standing “with our faculty, students, and alumni who engage culturally sustaining, equity-driven, and justice-focused pedagogical practices in order to improve learning opportunities for all.”
This page is dedicated to illuminating how we in the CI School of Education strive to prepare educators to uplift, inspire, and engage all students, families, and communities with whom they work. The links below will take you to the activities, assignments, assessments invoked in our courses that embody our work to advance issues of equity, diversity, inclusion, and teaching/educating for justice. It is work central to our purpose, mission, and ways of being in the world.
