June: 11th Annual (Virtual) Teaching & Learning Conference
Teacher identities play a significant role in how one operates in the classroom. Regardless of where one teaches (and at what level), educators can strengthen their craft by reflecting on that identity and seeking to understand its implications. This plenary session by Dr. Matt Ridenour will focus on bringing teacher selves into conscious spaces for deep and intentional examination. See the June tab for details.
