Join VSTE's Education Committee, led by Board Director Tim Taylor, for its monthly meeting on Thursday, March 24, at 7 PM. We will be joined by Ron Shultz, PhD, Associate Professor of Teacher Education at
Eastern Mennonite University. Dr. Shultz wil, discuss Culturally Responsive Teaching in a Digital Age:

Regardless of the school division, it is evident that the cultural demographics of our students are becoming increasingly diverse. This requires a different perspective and approach for developing relationships with students and engaging them in the learning process. Simultaneously, technology impacts both our society in general, as well as the classroom experience, in ways that we have never experienced before. How might one inform the other? Join us for a conversation about how an increased understanding of culturally responsive teaching can more effectively inform technology instruction.
