Mentoring for Equity Background The New Teacher Center - WI (NTP-WI) and the Dane County New Teacher Project (DCNTP) offer this unique opportunity to train those who work with those newest to the teaching profession. The NTP-WI is affiliated with The New Teacher Center at the University of California, Santa Cruz. The NTP-WI, in learning from the Santa Cruz model, has adapted much of the California training and revised it so that it strongly reflects the Wisconsin Teacher Standards and supports districts as they meet the requirements of PI34. Content This two-day training, written and designed with Enid Lee, focuses on a framework for teaching for equitable outcomes and for mentoring beginning teachers from an equity perspective within the context of Professional Teaching Standards. Inequities regarding race, language, and culture in the classroom and school-wide will be addressed in this session. This training is guided by the belief that we must uncover and address inequities in pedagogy, content, and climate in order to teach all students successfully. Training Topics Understanding the principles of equitable education Connecting culture, language and race to all aspects of teaching and learning Identifying inequities, gaps, differential treatment in terms of pedagogy, content and climate Using knowledge and strategies to address inequities regarding language, race and culture Understanding the phases of change with regard to anti-racist practice Learning to use observational and self-assessment tools for equitable outcomes Giving feedback to beginning teachers on issues of racism and anti-racist practice as they relate to teaching and learning Intended Audience This training is appropriate for any educators, particularly those who support new teachers.
