Professors publish playbook for how teachers can address parents concerned about CRT

A recent report published by a trio of college professors details "effective responses" school leaders can use when questioned by parents who are concerned about critical race theory curricula.

"The goal of effective messaging is essentially to step away from the fueling of fear because people can very easily go down a rabbit hole of engaging in debates that become echo chambers," Francesca López, one of the authors of the report, said, according to Education Week. She serves as the Waterbury Chair in Equity Pedagogy at The Pennsylvania State University.

"Effective messaging moves beyond just engaging in a debate," she added. "It keeps people focused with a clear message on what, for example, equity-focused approaches in education are really meant to do."

The report was published in Kappan, an outlet that reports on issues related to education, and appeared in the publication's November issue.

The report provides teachers and school leaders a three-step approach on how to address concerned parents, including: opening the conversation with a shared value both parties hold; "use active voice to name an antagonist (e.g., the people who are trying to divide us) and call out divide-and-conquer tactics;" and ending the conversation with a "strong, positive call to action that affirms common values," as opposed to being race-neutral or colorblind.

They foist their radical racist ideology on the educational system then propose to “call out divide-and-conquer tactics” of those who oppose.

”…use active voice to name an antagonist (e.g., the people who are trying to divide us)”

Demunists. Radicals. Wokesters. Teacher’s Unions. Biden. Harris. Antifa. BLM. Lots of teachers. Pelosi. Fetterman. Schumer. Wray. Liberals.

Yeah, that’s just what she wants to hear.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Unless people like this die in large numbers or flee to Canada or Cuba the battle can’t be won. This is why the GOP is worthless and an impediment to defeating the communists. With all his money, why does Trump not see the necessity for building a real political resistance movement? It has to be something that will outlive him. As it is now when Trump disappears all resistance also vanishes.

A recent report published by a trio of college professors details “baffling bull$hit” school leaders can use to avoid answering questioned by parents who are fully alerted to the Marxism being introduced through critical race theory curricula.

Simple response replace all board members!
If a board candidate is an ex-teacher don’t vote for the candidate. If the candidate has a education degree don’t vote for the candidate. Doesn’t matter if they’re your next door neighbor a known good conservative they have the scarlet “E” on them.

Lobby the legislature to allow easy licensing of people to teach in the K12 system who have degrees and experience. Lobby the legislature to disallow the state education unions from maintaining their stranglehold on who teaches & who doesn’t! For example there’s no reason someone with a STEM degree can’t teach science\math in the K12 system.

The terrible track record the K12 system has demonstrated its inability to adequately teach the basics should make everyone take pause. That should tell you about the worthlessness of the colleges of education, the educational culture it produces and any degree they issue.

People should look askance at anyone with an education degree no matter what they are doing. Tell your kids in college if you are getting an Ed degree get out of it or combine with something else. Combine with STEM or business just combining with liberal arts or social sciences is better just the ed degree but only marginally.

Vote against every education bond levy. Form private schools and home school.

the Waterbury Chair in Equity Pedagogy
It's down the street from UPenn, so maybe she should spend some time at one or the other COMPLETELY FAILED Philly public high schools that have placed "equity" over education, and which are not allowed to fail, reprimand, or control students, all in the name of "equity" and which has left generations of people in poverty, violence and crime.

My suggestion is to tell them to stick CRT up their ass and vote them all out in the next school board election.
