Workshop Objective: The purpose of the workshop is to highlight the
impact of culturally responsive teaching that incorporates the
dimensions of African American culture and tenets of identity
development among African American middle and high school
students. The workshop will focus on presenting culturally responsive
teaching ideas and other instructional information to middle and high
school history teachers. Participants will leave with strategies they
can immediately implement in general and special education
environments. These materials can be used to illuminate the history
standards (both state and national) to include African American
experiences and personal narratives.
The Teachers' Workshop is facilitated by Dr. LaVonne I. Neal, Dean
of the College of Education and Professor of Special Education at the
University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, and co-editor of the Black
History Bulletin.
