Culturally Responsive Teaching.
Module 3- Learning as dynamic; Education as engagement in social change/justice.
I agree with: These teachers are successful because they utilize students’ culture as a vehicle for learning; they have a strong focus on student learning; they are creative; they develop cultural competences and cultivate socio-political awareness in their students.
I think it is very important that students have the knowledge and learn from the great variety of different cultures because by doing so they can understand and socialize with their other classmates and at the same time they continue to learn from their teacher to continue a social formation. developing. and academic performance.
I disagree with “culturally responsive teaching activates the citizenship of all students, keeps them awake, and makes them active participants in the fight for social change.”
I believe that students go to schools to have academic training to be successful professionals with good ethics and values, but not to be "active participants in the fight for social change." Perhaps when they are professionals, they can contribute to being good people in society.
Assume: “cultural references to impart knowledge, skills and attitudes”
I assume that a good teacher has a pedagogy that empowers students intellectually, socially, emotionally, and politically in different cultures.”
I aspire: These teachers inspire, motivate, instill values and knowledge; they feed racial pride and the need for equality.
It is very satisfying that teachers empower themselves by teaching students the different cultures that make students feel comfortable learning to have skills in terms of language, values, norms, ethics of cultures.
