Deborah Loewenberg Ball: The Power of Teaching in the Struggle for Justice

May 4, 2023
5:00 pm EDT - 6:30 pm EDT

Deborah Loewenberg Ball

Dr. Ball is the William H. Payne Collegiate Professor of Education at the University of Michigan, an Arthur F. Thurnau Professor, and
the founding director of TeachingWorks.

Her talk will examine the powerful role that teaching plays in reproducing injustice, but how it also can serve to be a powerful lever for advancing a just society. Connections will be drawn between macro-level historical, sociopolitical, and societal systems and micro-level practices that comprise the everyday work of teaching. We will ground our explorations in the context of elementary mathematics teaching and will analyze the discretionary spaces inherent in practice and how these can be used to disrupt patterns of inequity and marginalization. Implications for other subjects
will be highlighted as well

Sponsored by: The Bean Distinguished Lecturer Series, The Diversity & Inclusion Innovation Fund (DIIF Award), and The Education Society of Saint Anselm College

Light refreshments will be served
