178. Inequalities and Possibilities in Education [Panel with Presenters on Sunday, March 24, 2024 from 9am.

Organizer:

Irina Chukhray, University of California Davis

This panel broadly focuses on reimagining the role of community in educational settings from different points of analysis. Our panelists discuss their qualitative, quantitative and mixed-method research on secondary classrooms, the high school to college transition, and the undergraduate experience for students from immigrant, undocumented, mixed-status, and low-SES backgrounds. Panelists will discuss research around positive and negative educational experiences, including students’ experiences of microaggressions, student processing and unlearning of systemic oppression through mindfulness as well as educators’ and counselors’ roles as social capital change agents within educational communities. The common thread connecting our research is our endeavor to facilitate our understanding of and expansion of access to social spaces that are safe for the risk-taking required for student development in educational settings. We welcome you to attend our panel and encourage you to participate in a lively discussion with the panelists on inequalities and possibilities in education.
