'Cultivating Genius: An Equity Model for Culturally and Historically Responsive Education' - March 23

Buffalo State students, faculty, and school and community partners are invited to attend the free virtual workshop “Cultivating Genius: An Equity Model for Culturally and Historically Responsive Education,” presented by Gholnecsar “Gholdy” Muhammad, associate professor of language and literacy at Georgia State University, on Tuesday, March 23, from 4:00 to 5:30 p.m. Please register online.

In this session, Dr. Muhammad will clearly define culture, equity, anti-racism, and culturally and historically responsive education. Together, equity will be explored and revisited in deep, multifaceted ways, emphasizing the need for equity education across the nation. By the end of this session, educators will understand equity, anti-racism, and responsive education and will be charged with engaging in self-identity work. In addition, educators will be introduced to a five-layered equity model for teaching and learning: (1) identity, (2) skills, (3) intellectualism, (4) criticality, and (5) joy.

This event is sponsored by the Buffalo State Grant Allocation Committee, the Woods-Beals Endowment for Urban Education, the Buffalo State School of Education, the Buffalo State Professional Development Schools Consortium, and the New York State Master Teacher Program and partially funded by the Faculty-Student Association.
