CarinaM----Critical Reading/Reflection FEB.24

Highlight of my readings:
  • DisCrit recognizes the shifting boundary between normal and ab-normal
  • DisCrit explores ways in which both race and ability are socially constructed and interdependent
  • Youth harmed by intersectionality "do not fit"
  • How can we expand our knowledge or understanding of race and dis/ability?
  • K-12 schools  often separate hallways or even buildings removed from the rest of students. Also curriculum and instruction in schools are often detached from special education
  • Race and dis/ability have been used to marginalize particular group and society
  • Solutions; engaging in dialogue to potentially transform inequities in our education system to avoid fall through the cracks
  • No child left behind act,privatizations of public education,teachers tied to student test scores
  • Draw attention to those communities marginalized by dominant communities
  • Mentoring approach to impact a healthy support- outcomes of children and families
  • Building relationships between mentors and youth is vital piece of the puzzle 
  • The three mentoring interaction elements;focus, purpose, and authorship to distinguish between effective and ineffective mentoring relationship styles.

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. They will coordinate questions to  investigate  about the study, also they will provide me some dates to begin the students interview process at my school on a Friday morning.
