Flynn, Joseph; James, Robin; Mathien, Tara; Mitchell, Pardess; Whalen, Stephanie
Curriculum and Teaching Dialogue, v19 n1-2 p69-85 2017
This essay explores pedagogy and practice at the community college level. Specifically, this essay explores three separate yet connected issues for community college faculty: the need and importance for faculty understanding of the nature of pedagogy and culturally relevant and responsive teaching to support empowering students and fostering completion; building community in distance learning courses; and developing practical experiences for career preparation as reflections of culturally relevant pedagogy and culturally responsive teaching.
