Who Said Teaching Boys is Challenging? - 26730
Educators often say that engaging boys during the learning process is challenging. If so, how can educators create equitable learning environments that minimize the challenge and maximize learning? In this three-part series, we explore research-based strategies proven to meet the learning needs of boys and address the nuances of race and its impact on how boys of color experience formal schooling. Session one focuses on the needs of boys, in a general sense, and provides strategies for creating responsive learning environments. Sessions two and three focus on the needs of African-American, Latino, Caucasian, and Asian boys as they relate to their socialization and cultural influences.
We strongly encourage participants to attend all three sessions to optimize their learning; however, participants may attend sessions independent of each other.
