Participants will watch video sections and answer questions to gain CEU\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading heading-separator-short\">Disparities in Special Education<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first session,&nbsp;<strong>Disparities in Special Education<\/strong>, addresses the inconsistencies in special education referrals, qualifications, and provision of services for students of color. From the article: Race, Poverty, and Interpreting Overrepresentation in Special Education: \u201cWe do not want to live in a society where parents describe access to dyslexia (or other) services as \u201ca rich man\u2019s game.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Both underrepresentation of students of color who truly need special services and overrepresentation of students of color with perceived behavior issues in special education are equally as damaging.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Registration Link:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/sce\/courses\/disparities-in-special-education\/\">Disparities in Special Education CEU Course<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading heading-separator-short\">Disparities in School Discipline<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The second conversation,&nbsp;<strong>Disparities in School Discipline<\/strong>, will cover discipline inequities in school districts. From the article Disproportionality in Student Discipline: Connecting Policy to Research: \u201cMajor racial disparities in student discipline rates have been documented for decades. Most recently, the 2013-14 Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC) documented that black students, who make up 16 percent of enrollment, accounted for 40 percent of suspensions nationally.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Zero Tolerance policies were implemented in the 1990\u2019s after the Columbine shooting. Many students under strict zero-tolerance policies are punished without a second thought. This type of disciplinary procedure has been proven in research to have an overall negative effect on students, and a disproportionately negative effect on minorities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Registration Link:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/sce\/courses\/disparities-in-school-discipline\/\">Disparities in School Discipline CEU Course<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading heading-separator-short\">Literacy and Social Justice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The third session,&nbsp;<strong>Literacy and Social Justice<\/strong>, will cover how the teaching of reading is deeply connected to social justice. For example, in Wisconsin, 11% of Black children read proficiently. Latinx, Asian, and Native American students throughout Wisconsin also experience lower rates of reading proficiency. In this session, education leaders of reading will join the panel to discuss:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>How reading is a form of social justice for children in educationally marginalized communities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Registration Link:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/sce\/courses\/literacy-and-social-justice\/\">Literacy and Social Justice CEU Course<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-l-col uwm-l-col--4 uwm-l-offset--1\"><nav aria-label=\"Sidebar\" class=\"uwm-p-navigation-list uwm-p-navigation-list--gold-border \"><div class=\"uwm-p-navigation-list--title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/education\/community-engagement\/institute-for-urban-education\/\">Institute for Urban Education<\/a><\/div><ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/education\/community-engagement\/institute-for-urban-education\/student-teaching-internships\/\">Clinical Options: Student Teaching and Internships<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/education\/community-engagement\/institute-for-urban-education\/professional-development\/\">Professional Development<\/a><ul><li><a class=\"current\" href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/education\/community-engagement\/institute-for-urban-education\/professional-development\/ceu-courses\/\"><span aria-current=\"page\">CEU Courses<\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/education\/community-engagement\/institute-for-urban-education\/research\/\">Research<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/education\/community-engagement\/institute-for-urban-education\/culturally-relevant-teaching-resources\/\">Culturally Relevant Teaching Resources for Educators<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/education\/community-engagement\/institute-for-urban-education\/uw-system\/\">UW System<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/education\/community-engagement\/institute-for-urban-education\/contact\/\">Contact<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:43px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-p-card uwm-p-card--color-head uwm-u-mb-40\"><div class=\"uwm-p-card--title\">Contact<\/div><div class=\"uwm-p-card--body\"><div class=\"uwm-p-card--content\">\n<p>For question about the courses, contact&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:iue-info@uwm.edu\">iue-info@uwm.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1287,"featured_media":0,"parent":176,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"templates\/centered.php","meta":{"footnotes":"","uwm_wg_additional_authors":[22499]},"class_list":["post-178","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.7 (Yoast SEO v27.7) -
