Culturally Responsive Training
At Brightways Learning, we know the importance of teaching students authentically through their familiar cultural contexts - whether related to indigenous cultures or place-based lifestyles. It’s good pedagogy and also a key factor in keeping students engaged through real-world applications that matter to them.
Through our professional, community, and school development training and supporting services, we help identify the appropriate qualities and practices associated with culturally-responsive educators, curriculum, and schools.
Educators and community members understand the importance of integrating local culture and academics, but implementing can be a daunting task. Brightways Learning can provide the support needed to achieve your goals.
