Teacher Dreaming, Design & Learning Lab

What happens when elementary teachers dream and design for learning together? How might the brilliance and sensemaking of Black children help us sharpen our ideas of what it means to do educational justice work? The Teacher Dreaming, Design & Learning Lab is a collective and research project focused on explorations of (professional) learning, pedagogical imagination, justice and childhood as entangled. It is learning and design space for teachers who are already committed to “the work” and who may be looking for alternative spaces to forge bonds, heal, analyze, co-think, theorize and plan for future practice.

Children are S.A.G.E.

Children are Savvy, Artful, Grounded & Emergent.

Children are S.A.G.E. describes a body of creative and scholarly work explicitly focused on childhood and fundamental questions of human dignity & learning. My goal is to highlight some of my (imperfect, emerging, co-developed) work related to elevating children’s thinking and ideas. I challenge adults to work through the political tensions and meanings of childhood as a period not characterized by lacking, but instead- a formative time to practice, grow, imagine and as necessary, critique toward new and better realities.
