Anti-Racist Curriculum
A training workshop typically includes several components that work together to create a comprehensive learning experience. The basic components of a training workshop are:
Introduction: This is the first part of the workshop where the trainer introduces themselves and explains the purpose and objectives of the training. The introduction also includes an icebreaker activity to help participants get to know each other.
Content delivery: This is the main component of the workshop where the trainer delivers the content using various methods such as lectures, demonstrations, and interactive activities. The content should be structured in a way that is easy to follow and understand.
Hands-on activities: These are activities that allow participants to apply what they have learned in the content delivery phase. Hands-on activities can include group discussions, case studies, role-plays, and simulations.
Feedback and evaluation: This component involves providing participants with feedback on their performance during the workshop. It also includes evaluating the effectiveness of the training workshop in achieving the desired outcomes.
Conclusion: This is the final component of the workshop where the trainer summarizes the key points covered and provides participants with resources for further learning.
Overall, these components work together to create a successful training workshop that helps participants acquire new knowledge, skills, and attitudes.
A good icebreaker for an anti-racist workshop could be to ask each participant to share a personal story or experience that made them aware of the importance of anti-racism work.
Facilitator Note:
This could help create a safe and inclusive environment where everyone feels comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings, while also allowing participants to learn from one another's experiences and perspectives.
Another idea could be to have participants share a positive action they have taken to combat racism in their personal or professional lives, which could inspire others to take similar actions and promote a sense of community and shared commitment to anti-racism efforts.
