Centering Wellness and Fostering Interconnectedness with Future Educators of Color during a Global Pandemic and Racial Justice Uprising
Navarro, Oscar
Issues in Teacher Education, v29 n1-2 p54-64 Fall 2020
With the advent of COVID-19 and classes moving online, future educators of Color (FEoC) in teacher education programs are susceptible to the same disparities in outcomes and retention that college students of Color experience. As a teacher educator of Color, I drew from "abolitionist teaching," "restorative practices," and "engaged pedagogy" to redesign and teach an online course for FEoC during the pandemic and racial justice uprising. I centered wellness and fostered interconnectedness through the use of restorative circles to process the pandemic and anti-Black violence and scheduled one-on-one meetings with FEoC to listen and respond to their needs. I emerged from the experience both humbled and hopeful that intentionally designing online coursework can support FEoC and inspire collective social action.
