EXTRAVAPALOOZA 2024:


Creating Change 

in the Everyday Moments


SUMMER PROFESSIONAL LEARNING FOR THE UCI EDUCATORS COMMUNITY 

 LEARNING BETTER, TOGETHER 



 Extravapalooza was created in summer of 2020 for educators seeking pedagogical shifts in their practice and support from fellow educators. Our goal every year is to create a space in which educators support each other on our collective transformative journey of cultivating a more inclusive, just classroom and beyond.  

We are honored to have you join us as we reflect upon and refine our pedagogical beliefs and instructional practices to Creating Change in the Everyday Moments. We are proud to partner with experts and experienced educators from across the country and provide you with our curated collection of literature, sessions, and workshops. 

However you choose to participate, we hope Extravapalooza provides you with 

resourcefulness and empowerment. 

We look forward to learning better, together with you.
