Exploring Culture, Identity, and Learning in the Community College Classroom

What is “culture?” How does it impact learning? Is being “color-blind” really helping our students? What are cultural discontinuities and how do they impact student achievement? This workshop defines key terms, explores research on the connections between culture, identity, and learning, and includes an opportunity to discuss possible ways to integrate that information into the development of our classes at NSCC.

Presenter: Mary Elizabeth Wilson-Patton, Ph.D., Associate Professor – ESL, and Fellow in The Teaching Center
