Vermont’s Education Equity Landscape (Pre-COVID) – Judy Dow
In this episode of Back To Freedom School, French-Indian Vermont native, educator, and grandmother Judy Dow offers a historical context for Vermont’s socio-political landscape that is generally inaccessible from a white normative perspective, and connects societal transgressions from the past to some of our current challenges and opportunities. Our discussion includes some of the fundamental concepts used to teach young people to read, and “basic essential understanding” of the cultural and political social location of students (in terms of pedagogy) which enable educators to deliver effectual personalized learning to students from different backgrounds.
Note to listeners: PBIS is an acronym for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports. According to PBIS.org, “PBIS is an evidence-based three-tiered framework for improving and integrating all of the data, systems, and practices affecting student outcomes every day.”
