Examining teachers\u27 perceptions of culturally responsive teaching practices and the impact on the academic and social-emotional success of black and brown boys in voluntary prekindergarten classrooms: A qualitative study
Get PDFThe purpose of this study was to explore voluntary pre-kindergarten (VPK) teachers’ perspectives regarding the theory of culturally responsive pedagogy. This study also sought to understand how teachers implement culturally responsive teaching practices in VPK classrooms and their perceptions of how culturally responsive teaching impacts the academic and social-emotional success of Black and Brown male students. The study was conducted using a qualitative, phenomenological methodology. Gay’s (2018) pillars of culturally responsive teaching were used as the conceptual framework to explore the cultural characteristics, experiences, and perspectives of voluntary prekindergarten (VPK) teachers. Data collection tools included (1) two recorded semi-structured interviews, each lasting approximately 35-45 minutes; (2) two non-evaluative classroom teacher observations, each lasting approximately 3 hours, the duration of the VPK instructional day; and (3) document analysis of artifacts such as teacher lesson plans, teaching materials, posters, handouts, and student work samples. An analysis of observation data revealed how participants enacted practices that promoted a culture of care and respect and leveraged students’ cultural backgrounds to promote authentic engagement and active learning. Participants demonstrated how they created and reinforced classroom conflict expectations that aligned with students\u27 values and cultures. They also demonstrated how engaging in academic discourse enhances student participation and understanding in VPK classrooms. Further analysis of the findings suggests that establishing a learning partnership can positively shift students’ mindsets. In addition, students who regulate their emotions and possess social-emotional competence when entering kindergarten are more likely to develop positive relationships with peers and teachers. Finally, the data suggests that using song and dance as an instructional practice allows students to process new content, as the connection to the brain strengthens students\u27 memories (Hammond, 2015). Implications for school and center leaders as well as VPK teachers are offered, in addition to recommendations for practice and future research

Developing Immersive Experiences from Library Collections
Get PDFStep inside history! This engaging session details the University of North Florida Library\u27s innovative, collaborative process to create an immersive virtual reality experience from archival materials. Attendees will learn a step-by-step guide to developing similar projects that bring history to life. We will share how we partnered with a local African-American museum to identify compelling archival content and acquired specialized equipment to digitize materials and environments. By leveraging the power of an interdisciplinary campus team, we built an accessible virtual reality experience that allows students and community members to make personal connections with local history. Session takeaways include strategies for initiating campus and community collaborations, securing funding, managing project scopes and timelines, and implementing virtual reality technologies. Join us to explore this cutting-edge project that transformed archival photos, documents, and spaces into an interactive educational experience that exceeded our expectations. You\u27ll be inspired to create your own immersive history projects tailored to your institutional resources and community needs.
Learning Objectives:
1. Participants will learn innovative techniques for digitizing archival materials and environments to create immersive educational experiences. This session provides fresh ideas for leveraging technology like VR to increase access and engagement with local history.
2. Participants will gain strategies for initiating collaborative digitization projects that unite campus departments and community cultural institutions. This demonstrates new models of cooperation across libraries and organizations.
3. Participants will get step-by-step guidance on project planning, from securing funding to managing timelines and scopes. This provides transferable methods for developing similar initiatives at their institutions.
4. As members of Florida’s African American community, presenters will share insights about the power of providing a different perspective of African American history to their educational communities. Their identities and connections to the project content provide unique context on community partnerships and project motivations.
5. Participants will understand how inclusive practices like multidisciplinary collaboration and increasing diverse representation in tech can help build a more equitable profession. The session ties directly to core values like diversity and inclusion
