Part 2: Moving towards culturally responsive caring

In Part 2: Moving Towards Culturally Responsive Caring, educators explore characteristics of culturally responsive caring, drawing on examples from Dr. Geneva Gay, Dr. Gloria Ladson-Billings, Zaretta Hammond, and the NYSED Culturally Responsive and Sustaining Education Framework. Educators then explore actions they can take towards culturally responsive caring, in both remote and in-person learning environments.
