This teacher institute facilitated by Gilcrease Museum in partnership with the Tri-City Collective and the University of Tulsa’s Institute of Trauma, Adversity and Injustice is a 12-hour professional development opportunity for TPS educators that will provide tools to support pedagogical experiences surrounding historical trauma and trauma-informed classroom practices focusing on empathy, equity, resilience and healing. Participants will work closely with Gilcrease collections related to the forced removal of Southeastern tribes, freedmen and Afro-Indigenous histories in Oklahoma, and the Tulsa Race Massacre, hear talks by inspiring speakers, learn in cohorts, develop practical tools to support teaching difficult histories including self-care and arts integration activities for educators and students, and leave with useful curricular resources.
This three half-day institute will be conducted virtually with both live and asynchronous interactive learning experiences and will culminate in an evening celebration at the museum’s research center that will include special access to the museum’s archives and collections experts and inspiring arts experiences. Participants will join live sessions between 1-4 p.m. daily and be expected to complete an additional three hours of asynchronous activities through Canvas within a week of the institute’s completion. Teachers will receive stipends through the district for participating in the institute.
