Building Critical Consciousness for Educational Equity | Nicole West-Burns, Ph.D. | TEDxOshawaED

On a critical exploration of marginalization, Nicole leads us through what social change in schools would lead to in a truly equitable education system. She helps us understand what it would feel like, and challenges us to think about a continual progress of learning and growth. Dr. Nicole West-Burns works as a consultant on educational equity issues. Since 2008, she has worked with educators in Ontario to support/guide professional learning promoting equitable educational outcomes in schools for students, using Culturally Relevant & Responsive Pedagogy (CRRP). She is a leader on equity initiatives in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, and is currently a facilitator with the Education Equity Secretariat’s Office, developing and leading provincial work tied to deepening understandings and practices of CRRP. Dr. West-Burns taught on the faculty in the Master of Teaching program at Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE)/ University of Toronto (UofT). She worked as the Director of School Services (Urban Schooling) at OISE. She served as a lead writer on the "Equity Continuum: Action for Critical Transformation in Schools and Classrooms", which sold thousands of copies and is on the required reading list for the Ontario Principals’ Council. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
