My Summer PD Plans
With my trip to India with Fulbright Teachers for Global Classrooms on hold, I've been on the hunt for things to keep my teacher-brain honed and ready for whatever will be happening in the fall.
Here's what I have so far...
June 9
Can speculative fiction help us prepare for the future?, a "virtual discussion" sponsored by Climateworks Foundation and Arizona State University’s Center for Science and the Imagination
and
Design Challenge: Imagining Classrooms in Fall 2020, a workshop sponsored by UC Berkeley's Office of Resources for International and Area Studies
June 11
June 24
White Folks (Part I): We Have to Talk About Race (a webinar from Pr(ism) Resistance Coalition; read more about it here)
June 24-August 5

June 25

July 28-30

August 3-7
Connected Histories of the Renaissance, a virtual institute from Georgetown University's Center for Contemporary Arab Studies

July is looking a little bare, but that first week of August could be a doozy!
