SPIE 5140 - 60 The Interdisciplinary and Intersectional Study of Education for All

This course prepares teacher candidates to create and sustain positive and effective learning environments for diverse student populations, enhancing their confidence in working with students from different cultures and dis/Abilities. Through an exploration of intersectionality, participants understand how identity shapes educational experiences. Using interdisciplinary approaches, strategies are developed to foster global and intersectional competence and legal responsibilities to serve all students and their families along their intersections of identities. Scenario-based learning sharpens skills in creating inclusive classrooms that promote equity, justice, and a sense of responsibility.
