Allyship for Educators
Establish a culture of genuine equity, inclusion, and justice in the classroom. Educators will use theater-based learning strategies to help challenge assumptions and acknowledge biases in order to create a safe learning space.
This foundational experience is designed to utilize components of theater (being authentic, present, connected, intentional, and curious) to deconstruct personal bias in our lived experiences, while equipping educators with the ability to infuse anti-oppression tools (identity, diversity, justice, and action) into educational practices. Theater is a tool of empathy and perspective. How can we use the principles of theater like the development of character, connection to a scene partner, outlining objectives and obstacles that affect the action, and tactics used to achieve goals, to create curriculum and environments that facilitate inclusive, diverse, and just experiences for students?
