  10. CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE PRACTICES Dr. Gloria Ladson-Billings • Key components of culturally responsive practices are: • Teachers who are culturally competent about their students’ cultural beliefs and practices; • Teachers who think of all of their students as capable learners, have high expectations for them, and help the students set short and long term goals for themselves; • Teachers who know each student and draw on the students’ own experiences to help them learn; • Teachers who have a wide variety of teaching strategies and skills to engage the students; • Teachers who can help the students deal with the inequitable treatment of students of color and other underserved populations by helping them become critically conscious and knowledgeable about the students' culture; and • Teachers who can create a bridge between the students’ home and school lives while meeting district and state curricular requirements. • https://videos.madison.k12.wi.us/node/756 • https://videos.madison.k12.wi.us/node/756 https://videos.madison.k12.wi.us/node/756

  28. What does RELEVANT mean? When teachers make things relevant – students are engaged! Relevant… …having a connection to your life and the way that you learn… "Educational researchers have proven time and again that culturally responsive teaching methods increase student achievement. So if our teaching is not culturally relevant, then we as educators are not relevant.” - ChikeAkua
