15. Dr. Gholdy Muhammad -- Including Identity, Skills, Knowledge, Criticality, and Joy in a Literacy Instructional Framework

To the Classroom: Conversations with Researchers & Educators

Today I welcome Dr. Gholdy Muhammad. She’ll teach us about the importance of including qualitative research, her studies of the Black Literary Societies of the 1800s, and how that research has inspired her instructional framework which includes identity, skills, knowledge, criticality and joy. In the second half of the episode I’ll be joined by my colleagues Angie, Emily, Lea, and Jerry for a conversation about practical strategies and takeaways for the classroom.
