"I love the connections we get to make with each other and the space to question our pedagogical habits and blind spots. It's been a true education. SITE is helping me grow!" --Winter SITE participant
- For our first Winter Institute, we welcomed CSUDH's Dr. Mara Lee Grayson and members from her FLC to present their research on race rhetorics, antiracist composition pedagogy, and racial literacy in teacher education.
- Dr. Grayson was our keynote speaker, which was followed by a presentation by her colleague Amanda Reyes.
- In the afternoon, SITE participants had the opportunity to choose from four different workshops conducted by current SITE FLCs.
- Photos and descriptions below offer just a glimpse of the enriching experience one can gain at a SITE Institute!
