DR FARHA SHARIFF MAKE IT AWKWARD SUMMIT

PREMIUM | Make it Awkward | Season 1

Like many people, educators watch the news and wonder how to make sense of all that is happening in our world, our country, our city. As educators, we wonder how to talk about these events with our students. What is our role? What is the scope of these conversations? How do these events impact the students we teach? What is our responsibility? Future generations will ask about these moments, wondering: How did this happen? What did we do to resist? Join Dr. Farha Shariff from the Faculty of Secondary Education, UofA, in a discussion about these questions and how to challenge the new normal. Learn more about how you can be proactive in your role as an educator, share best practices and engage in provocative discussions about race, culture, diversity and its place in schools. Leave with strategies on how to create effective change in your classrooms, schools and community.
