The fifth of five items from the folks at IES – I’d be interested to hear from K-12 distance and online folks that have been doing work in this area.

Webinar REL: Crearea de spații de afirmare culturală Alatura-te REL West for part one of a two-part webinar series designed to expand knowledge and provide practical, evidence-based examples of systems, policies, and practices that are culturally affirming—what they are and what they are not—to inform instruction, school climate-related practices, and everyday decisions that shape the academic and social-emotional well-being of students and their families. A presentation and panelist discussion will include lessons from research and practice about how in culturally affirming spaces, small practices have big payoffs and hold significant value for students’ academic progress. These practices include pronouncing students’ names correctly, speaking positively about families and communities in front of students, and sharing one’s own intercultural experiences. In this first webinar, participants will— Deepen understanding of culturally affirming school and classroom cultures and climates and how they shape student learning and social and emotional well-being Examine practices, policies, and conditions that hinder student belonging and inhibit the academic and social well-being of culturally, racially, and linguistically diverse students Learn about promising practices and behaviors that foster culturally affirming schooling experiences for students, families, and staff This webinar is intended for district and site leaders who are the drivers and stewards of equity-centered efforts in their district. Participants are encouraged to attend in teams of two or more and to register for both webinars, if possible.
