• Resumen

  • Educational Justice training was conducted in Taipei, Taiwan during the summer of 2019 by professors from the U.S. Educational Justice is a concept that promotes educational opportunity for all children, including low-income and minority children, children learning English, and children with disabilities. It harbors the belief that every child can learn and should have the opportunity to do so. Educational justice sheds light on the policies and practices within educational institutions. Educational justice requires education leaders to address inclusion, language barriers, poorly trained teachers, non-safe educational environments, overcrowded classrooms, outdated curriculum and lack of adequate materials.The Educational Justice training was designed to teach current educators how to effectively work with students with a disability and students who are indigenous in Taiwan. The Educational Justice curriculum was designed by professors from Virginia State University and Grambling State University and includes four modules that can be completed online and face to face.The four modules are:1. Inclusion,2. Educational Justice,3. Educational Justice and Pedagogy,4. Educational Justice and Assessment.The training was successful and participants received a certificate of completion. Additional training is expected to take place in other countries.
