Course Description

This course examines the intersection of diversity, inclusivity, equity, and P-16 education; specifically by considering multiple identity markers such as: gender, sexuality, race, socioeconomic status, ability, and all aspects of culture. This interdisciplinary course uses a sociological lens to examine educational materials, research studies, memoirs, and media to explore the following essential questions: In what ways do students' cultural identities impact their experiences in schools?; How are social inequalities perpetuated by and within the educational system?; What types of individual and systemic practices can help disrupt the marginalization of students in P-16 schools? How can schools celebrate and sustain students' cultural identities?
