Case Studies on Immigrant Status (Presentation)

This Professional Development Presentation was designed and facilitated at the 5dp Five District Partnership Educator Showcase professional development (PD) workshop. It focused on Chapter 11: Cases on Immigrant Status from the book "Case Studies on Diversity and Social Justice Education (2nd edition)" by Gorski and Pothini. The cases presented a variety of real-life scenarios and allowed educators to reflect on their biases and ways to create a more understanding classroom. The cases spotlighted: -Educators assigning nicknames to students with difficult to pronounce names -How black students from Africa and the United States perceive and identify themselves -How high-achieving immigrant children are treated in school sports teams -How involved immigrant parents are in their child's schooling -Why it is normal to have non-related family members attend parent-teacher meetings and be considered 'family'. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/390943678_Presentation_Case_Studies_on_Immigrant_Status
