Dialogue for Professional Learning

Addressing the ways culture impacts classrooms can seem a daunting task, but one possible approach is collaborative discussions with others. Becoming sensitive to the ways culture, literacy and language transact in classrooms is an ongoing endeavor, and we have found honest, reflective dialogue to be beneficial in working through and understanding the complexities of culture.

We offer a collection of questions and scenarios as a starting point for professional discussion and inquiry. We invite you to share them with your colleagues and continue the dialogue in your own school community.
