Join the Morningside Center for Teaching Social Responsibility for insightful information on why social and emotional learning is so critical right now, and why we need to ensure that it is culturally affirming.
In this session, we will engage in interactive exercises to demonstrate how anti-racist educators can create spaces where all identities—particularly those historically marginalized—are supported and affirmed. Participants will engage in strategies centered on culture to address the social and emotional competencies and skills required for people to be seen, voices to be heard, and experiences acknowledged. This is a culturally affirming SEL session to explore equitable and engaging learning environments.
