Critical Reading-Writing Assigment Week Feb.10

Intersectionality  is a new term for me but its definition is very familiar  and  uncomfortable. Everyone of us at some point have experienced Intersectionality.  I have experience it myself and witnessed it from others when it comes to the struggle  with gender equality, racial justice, and disability. We are so used to being labeled and stereotyped, is like we are driving in cruise control, very passive and we do not notice it.  The environment in our work place contributes to the segregation in some cases; and makes us be part of  the labeling without seeing. In my case for example, by creating schools and programs just for newcomers, having sheltered classroom, and also secluded areas for specific LD groups. My question is.. Are we helping and supporting our youth? Am I doing the right thing? Or are we just following the rules, and norms that others have already established without asking ourselves...

FIELD POST FEB.17-CARINA-MICHI-ANGEL

Michi and Angel are submitting and meeting all the deadlines with YARI.  They did not have time to review the assignment I have recommended it for them last week: About the Hopkins report and the students bills of rights. I sent the links again to them for reviewing and to narrow it down for our research project and to create a questionnaire. Some of the important parts of our conversation were about quantitative-qualitative research tips:  They  already   have  a topic, now they will identifying the literature, identifying  an issue to highlight as a purpose for the study.

Field Post-Feb.10(Learning-Visual/Written)

This class and the  YARI project will support, help, develop, and offer another opportunity for us to help the underserved. We can be in their shoes, brainstorm together and find alternative forms of teaching, learning, adapting, creating a  space where everyone can feel accepted and normal.  With an awareness of intersectionality, we can better acknowledge the differences among us and accept each other so we can move forward.  My mentees are high spirited and super smart Angel and Mich. We shared about ourselves and discussed our journey maps . I would love to be the guide that will provide additional data points, suggestions and support  that will help them navigate their project as best as possible. They already have a topic: Why Providence Schools are failing? Focusing on Disability,  Minority, and LGBTQ.  I suggested to review the Hopkins Report and also they will review the Student Bill of Rights that was created several years ago in...
