Exploring Implicit Bias in the History-Social Science Classroom (3 Day Event) 11/06/2021 - 11/17/2021 Event Dates: 11/06/2021 | 11/16/2021 | 11/17/2021 3:30 pm - 5:30 pm Saturday, November 6 is 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.; November 16 and 17 will be 3:30 - 5:30 p.m.
This VIRTUAL workshop will explore opportunities to address issues of implicit bias in the history-social science classroom by interrogating the different narratives educators use or choose to exclude in their curriculum.
Each session will focus on specific aspects of the California History-Social Science Framework instructional shifts: Content/Literacy/Inquiry/Civics as we unpack how implicit bias appears in narratives found in resources, materials, and classroom protocols. Educators will work collaboratively to identify specific opportunities in their curriculum and school contexts to create a more anti-racist, inclusive narrative that will connect with more students and the communities they serve.
DAY ONE, November 6: Understanding and recognizing implicit bias in a variety of contexts.
DAY TWO: November 16:Research-based readings and tools for identifying implicit bias in curricular materials, tasks and assessments, and school and classroom settings and strategies for addressing implicit bias.
DAY THREE: November 17: The Inquiry-driven Lesson Template as a tool for disrupting single-story narratives and engage students in civic learning.
