Strengthen your culturally responsive teaching by designing curricula that leads to equitable, humanized outcomes. In this powerful new book, Jessa Brie Moreno and Mariah Rankine-Landers reveal how artistic research and creative inquiry across subject areas and grades can help you access your learners' collective wisdom and potential. Moreno and Rankine-Landers describe the SPIRAL framework for centering culturally responsive teaching and learning through the arts, showing how and why these iterative processes lead to liberatory outcomes.
You'll learn how to use creative inquiry to address power dynamics in teaching and learning, and how to critically reflect on your curriculum, including investigating whose narratives are centered, whose have been erased, and which marginalized stories can be brought forward. You'll also find out how to alter the learning space to set a container for creative practice, which is key to navigating cultural shifts, building trust, and setting a collaborative and collective mindset.
The book offers a variety of practical activities you can implement right away, such as using visual art making, writing, and storytelling as prompts to activate meaning making and to disrupt unconscious biases, as well as using creative dialogue and character development for embodied learning, introspection, and identification. With the addition of this book to your professional library, you'll have new tools for building belonging and justice, and engaging all students through artistic research, dialogue, and deep listening.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Do Your Lessons Love Your Students? shows what it means to let the arts lead us to unexpected healing places - the place learners deserve to explore."
Susie Wise, Author of Design for Belonging: How to Build Inclusion and Collaboration in Your Communities
"Steeped in educational theory, years of experience in classroom settings, and a proven track record in professional development, Mariah Rankine Landers and Jessa Brie Moreno are showing us how to humanize the dehumanizing spaces of education and research.
Their book aims to build opportunities for students to build relationships with each other and their educators. Through a culturally and linguistically responsive approach they urge educators to go beyond oppression analysis to create pedagogies that lean toward self-actualization, using creative inquiry, healthy risk taking, and healing-informed work that centers artistic practice at its nexus.
After reading, reacting, and reflecting on this book, a core assessment moving forward for us all will be 'Do your students love your lessons?'"
