Join the live conversation for our January Liberalism in Practice Panel Discussion - Depoliticizing the Classroom: The Role of the Teacher. We will be live on ILV’s YouTube and on X (@ilvalues).
Has teaching turned into indoctrination? What does this look like in the classroom and how can teachers build a culture of critical thinking to replace critical theory? School unions and administrations often have the power to quiet dissident teacher voices, but there are still a few tools teachers can use to empower their students and push for classical educational standards in their classrooms. Brandy Shufutinsky, Naya Lekht, Jake Mackey and Dana Stangel-Plowe discuss the challenges teachers face and what they can do to both operate and educate in the face of these obstacles.
