SXSW EDU 2021
Understanding Biases in Processing Personal Trauma
Description:
We all hold implicit biases, despite our awareness of them, but we also all have the ability to acknowledge and correct them through critical self-reflection. Presenters will lead a collaborative, workshop-based discussion designed to further deconstruct inequity and inclusivity starting with their own relationships to students, peers, and families. Attendees will leave with the knowledge and skills required to reflect on and dismantle implicit biases while creating an affirming school culture.
