How the school promotes creativity in the classroom

Culturally Relevant Inspiration

A number of important resources supporting the design, development, implementation, and evaluation of culturally relevant instructional experiences are available online. Throughout this course, you have had many opportunities to view a number of such resources. This assignment encourages you to reflect on the key concepts presented in the course through the creation of a web-based tool that you can use in the future to support your teaching efforts. The goal is to showcase several model schools or programs representing what you have learned thus far regarding culturally relevant practices, creativity, and innovation. A plethora of options exists as you search for model schools or programs. While the K-12 public school setting may be on the forefront of your mind, remember there are a variety of learning environments available, such as charter and private schools, technical programs, post-secondary education and training programs, schools and programs pertaining to the military, and more. Therefore, expand your search efforts to gain a well-rounded perspective to share in your website. The resource you create can also be shared with colleagues (as well as the public in general) to advocate for implementing a more culturally-relevant instructional approach to professional practice.

A listing of good free tools you might choose to use as you develop your web-based tool (website) is presented in the Instructor Guidance. Each tool includes its own collection of help files and tutorials to support your creative endeavor.
