EDU-454 Creating and Sustaining Equitable Learning Environments (3) This course uses culturally and linguistically responsive frameworks to equip educators to design classroom environments that allow all students to develop the social, emotional, and behavioral skills that support academic achievement. Educators examine individual, institutional, and structural behavior management policies and practices that impede historically marginalized student populations’ social, emotional, and academic growth. Educators design student, classroom, and school-level systems of support that ensure educational opportunities for all learners, particularly those with individualized education programs (IEPs). Practical interventions such as communication and collaboration with families and related service providers are explored and interrogated to create equitable learning environments. Crosslist: EDU-654 .
