My Legacy Pedagogy Baggage
In Legacy Pedagogy Baggage, Matthew R Morris reminds us to acknowledge and lay down the pedagogical ‘baggage’ that we carry with us. What is your own ‘legacy pedagogy baggage’?
-school is about getting good grades – what is learning?
-pressure to read absolutely e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g. assigned no matter the personal cost
-attendance vs. being present
-thinking/behaving differently = bad
-quiet = disengaged
-shame based teaching
What would you need to help you lay it down?
-showing my imperfect self to my students – yes, we (teachers) are human too
-flexibility
-divergence in learning is GOOD!
-opportunities for physical and emotional movement in the classroom
-open conversations about pedagogy in lots of spaces!
-decentering whiteness
-recognizing privilege and how it shows up in the learning environment
-UDL
What would you pick up instead?
-continue recognizing that this baggage
-learning about alternative pedagogy
-supportive community
-therapy (always therapy!)
-space and time
