Save your seat! In February, join Dr. Rapahel for Writing with Purpose: Building a Culturally Responsive Teaching Practice at LitCon.

How can we best meet our students where they are? What are the most effective ways to leverage and affirm students’ existing cultural and community knowledge? Drawing on a successful Department of Education-funded writing project for Native Hawaiian students, Dr. Raphael offers practical strategies for infusing literacy instruction with a culturally responsive teaching lens.

This session will demonstrate how educators can leverage and affirm students’ existing cultural knowledge to create accessible and meaningful writing experiences. Attendees will gain actionable ideas to deepen place-based and community-based knowledge while boosting students’ confidence in writing. These practical strategies can enhance student engagement while building a more inclusive teaching practice.
