This book presents the work from a selection of contributors who
aim to provide educators with hands-on activities to encourage
reflection, awareness, and dialogue related to social justice
issues. Highlighting the need for teachers to intentionally create
spaces where students from all backgrounds can work together and
appreciate their differences, teachers and teacher educators
showcase hands-on literacy strategies that all educators can adapt
and use in their own classrooms to enhance social justice
awareness.
Understanding and addressing social justice concerns has become a
central focus in an increasing number of schools as well as teacher
education programs. The activities in this book are grounded in the
recognition that personal experience and engagement is essential
for meaningful intercultural learning and social justice awareness
to occur. The authors of these activities, themselves teachers and
teacher educators representing a wide range of disciplines, share
their favorite and most engaging strategies they have found to be
effective at helping students acquire a level of comfort and
insight in what can oftentimes be contentious, challenging and
sensitive issues. These hands-on activities actively engage
preservice and practicing teachers in real-life and simulated
experiences, raising awareness and providing a foundation for
introspection, reflection and discussion around these critically
important issues in the safety of the classroom setting.
