Diversity, equity, and cultural competence (DECC) is integral to being a skilled and informed educator. In today’s global and interconnected society, educators must constantly grow in their ability to teach culturally diverse students and groups. In the Exploring and Unpacking Bias course, educators will explore their personal biases. They will then create an infographic and a presentation that illustrates various types of bias in education, the impact of these biases have on students, and what can be done to disrupt bias in classrooms, schools, and districts.
