Celebrate AANHPI Heritage Month at AACTE’s Webinar on Building Leadership Pathways for Asian/American and Other BIPOC Faculty.
As Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage month comes to a close, we are excited to invite you to celebrate by joining us for a special webinar, Building Intentional Pathways for Asian/Americans and Other BIPOC Faculty to Advance in EPP Leadership, which takes place on Wednesday, May 29, at 12 p.m. EST.
This webinar is the culmination of AACTE’s Thought Leadership Series: “Exploring Leadership Diversity in Educator Preparation Programs: An Asian/American Perspective.” Over the past months, Ed Prep Matters has published a series of articles authored by Nicholas Hartlep, Ph.D., and Rachel Endo, Ph.D., that lay the groundwork for the critical discussions we will have during the webinar. These articles provide a deep dive into various aspects of leadership diversity in educator preparation programs, each contributing a vital piece to the overall conversation.
We encourage all attendees to read the following articles before the webinar, as they will serve as a starting point for our larger discussion:
- The Urgency to Address Asian/American Leadership Diversity in Educator Preparation Programs
- Demographic Trends of PK-12 Teachers/Students and Higher Education Faculty/Students
- What is AsianCrit?
- The Overwhelming Levels of Whiteness in Educator Preparation Programs
- The Significance of Asian/American Representation in EPPs and Description of Study
- Findings: How Asian/American EPP Leaders Experience and Negotiate Racialized Stereotypes, Gendered Dynamics, Inequities and Realities
During the webinar, the authors will delve into the unique challenges and opportunities that come with promoting leadership diversity, specifically from an Asian/American perspective, sharing their experiences, insights, and strategies for fostering an inclusive and representative leadership pipeline in education. This event promises to be a rich source of knowledge and inspiration for anyone committed to advancing equity and diversity in education.
