SUMMARY:Exploring Identity through Literature
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a hands-on workshop to explore textual lineages and their use as a tool to better understand the young learners in your life.\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nDo you remember the first time you saw yourself represented in a piece of writing? How did that representation make you feel? Happy\, sad\, seen\, embarrassed\, incomplete — or maybe something else? As educators\, we each bring our own unique experiences and histories into classrooms and makerspaces — and so do our students. \nMany things can shape our identities over time. Your identity isn’t just who you are\, it’s also shaped by how others see you\, who you want to be in the future\, your hobbies and interests\, your family history\, and where you live and grow up. \nIn this workshop\, we will explore the many layered meanings and origins of our identities\, practice some self-reflection\, and plan/prototype some different ways to get to know youth learners through textual lineages\, and reading and writing. \nWho is this workshop for? \n\nTeachers/educators specializing in English Language Arts\,\nEducators working with English-language Learners\,\nWriting tutors\,\nYouth librarians\,\nAnyone who loves to read or is learning to love reading\n\nOur approach: Our workshops aim to immerse educators in the experience of learners. No lecturing here — you can expect to be engaged in hands-on\, minds-on activities and interactive discussions for the full duration of the workshop. We’ll support you as you reflect on your practice as an educator\, learn and collaborate with other participants\, and stretch your teaching in new directions. \nPre-session work: We will be connecting our reflections in this workshop to Cultivating Genius: An Equity Framework for Culturally and Historically Responsive Literacy by Dr. Gholdy Muhammad. You don’t need to read the book to attend! In addition to this 2 hr workshop\, there will be 30 minutes of pre-session work which will be emailed to you after you sign up. \nInterested in diving more deeply into this framework? Join our Cultivating Genius Book Club discussion on June 25 to discuss this book more. RSVP here makeredbookclub.eventbrite.com.

SUMMARY:Anti-Racist Education for Makers: You're Too Comfortable
DESCRIPTION:Ace is thrilled to introduce 4 workshops in October that explore how to be anti-racist in our maker communities. Working with an amazing peace activist and facilitator\, Emily Bowen\, these workshops have been crafted to be broadly relevant to the maker community and Ace Makerspace specifically. \nSchema of Makers\nSunday\, October 4th  |   Noon – 1pm PST \n$5-20 sliding scale  |  Tickets \nWho defines what a legitimate maker is? Explore how different types of makers are valued and have influence in how the community is shaped. \nCommunities are like ecosystems — living things that change and evolve over time. We will unpack different maker identities and the dynamics of those identities and their influence on how our makerspace community has evolved… for good or for ill. This workshop will explore both what the identity of makers have been as well as explore what it could and should be. \nMaker Say What\nSunday\, October 11th  |   Noon – 1pm PST \n$5-20 sliding scale  |   Tickets \nHow the language we use to share maker knowledge interacts with race. \nWhen it’s easy to lean into jargon as a way to communicate intelligence and experience\, one can quickly conflate the words we use with who belongs and who doesn’t. And when it comes to talking about issues of race and gender\, there is often a fear of saying the wrong thing. This workshop will explore how to be inclusive with Maker speak\, as well as how to avoid the pitfalls of inaction by the fear of talking about race imperfectly. \nTaking Care of the New Guy\nSunday\, October 18th  |   Noon – 1pm PST \n$5-20 sliding scale  |   Tickets \nWhen the new guy isn’t white or a guy. We will explore where there is an opportunity to connect with people different than ourselves.  \nBlack people\, and other people of color as well as Indigenous individuals\, generally experience trauma because of microaggressions or just a lack of welcome in majority-white spaces. So to do female\, femme\, non-binary\, and gender-nonconforming folx in majority male spaces. How then do we take care of new individuals when they are not like us or having a much different experience in the world.  This workshop will leave participants with a checklist to do just that including positive accountability. \nYou’re Too Comfortable\nSunday\, October 25th  |   Noon – 1pm PST \n$5-20 sliding scale  |   Tickets \nRecognizing when comfort is an indicator of white supremacy manifesting itself. Explore how to take action when it does. \nOne way whiteness protects itself is by eliminating stressors of those who are in proximity to it. Things are easier\, quicker\, more accessible\, more abundant\, less risky\, and more. This workshop will examine how comfortable you are and explore where your own discomfort might be putting up barriers to equity and inclusivity. Then we’ll talk about what can be done about it. We will uncover what actions can be taken when we discover white supremacy manifesting itself.

And when it comes to talking about issues of race and gender\, there is often a fear of saying the wrong thing. This workshop will explore how to be inclusive with Maker speak\, as well as how to avoid the pitfalls of inaction by the fear of talking about race imperfectly. \nTaking Care of the New Guy\nSunday\, October 18th  |   Noon – 1pm PST \n$5-20 sliding scale  |   Tickets \nWhen the new guy isn’t white or a guy. We will explore where there is an opportunity to connect with people different than ourselves.  \nBlack people\, and other people of color as well as Indigenous individuals\, generally experience trauma because of microaggressions or just a lack of welcome in majority-white spaces. So to do female\, femme\, non-binary\, and gender-nonconforming folx in majority male spaces. How then do we take care of new individuals when they are not like us or having a much different experience in the world.  This workshop will leave participants with a checklist to do just that including positive accountability. \nYou’re Too Comfortable\nSunday\, October 25th  |   Noon – 1pm PST \n$5-20 sliding scale  |   Tickets \nRecognizing when comfort is an indicator of white supremacy manifesting itself. Explore how to take action when it does. \nOne way whiteness protects itself is by eliminating stressors of those who are in proximity to it. Things are easier\, quicker\, more accessible\, more abundant\, less risky\, and more. This workshop will examine how comfortable you are and explore where your own discomfort might be putting up barriers to equity and inclusivity. Then we’ll talk about what can be done about it. We will uncover what actions can be taken when we discover white supremacy manifesting itself.

SUMMARY:Maker Educator Convening
DESCRIPTION:In 2020\, the 6th annual Maker Educator Convening will be virtual\, to be held on Friday and Saturday\, Oct 2 and 3\, 2020. \nContinuing the commitment to our values and the hard work we must do as a field\, we’re thrilled to announce that this year’s theme is Making It Happen: Equity and Joy. \nWe expect to have approximately 3 hours of live content each day\, including a keynote and a rich variety of sessions to choose from. The schedule and sessions will be released by the end of the summer. Stay tuned for more details! \nOur proposal process is open! Apply now to join us as a presenter at this year’s Convening. Share your voices\, practices\, ideas\, and work! \nWe recognize that a virtual convening will not be the same experience as an in-person one\, and we’re excited to thoughtfully design and plan an event that shares the field’s knowledge\, enables inspiration and provocation\, and supports the community to grow together. \nAt our 2019 Convening in Pittsburgh\, PA at the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh\, we shared a glorious two days with our community of 241 attendees from 31 states and 3 countries. (In case you missed it\, learn more about our 2019 Maker Educator Convening here.) Our friends\, partners\, and colleagues shared numerous insights during and after the event\, and we can’t wait for what happens in 2020!  \nTestimonials\n“I imagine maker education shifting the way educators teach\, creating opportunities to reach every learner by applying constructivist practices and providing time and tools to develop skills and mindsets”  \n«··············» \n“I walked away with so many ideas and just feeling reenergized to do good work. It is easy to get burnt out in our field\, and sometimes you need something like this to relight the fire and passion.” \n«··············» \n“Sometimes it’s hard to mentally leave a lane of educational pedagogy you’ve believed in for a long time and look into others but I felt here I could value the new and the old\, so to speak.”  \n«··············» \n“There are so many ways to create\, make\, explore curiosity that the possibilities are endless. Also\, great questions were asked about who has access and what should be labeled as ‘making’.” \n«··············» \nImportant Dates\nRequest for proposals (RFP) opens June 22\, 2020 \nRFP closes July 31\, 2020 \nPresenters will be notified in mid-August 2020 \nRegistration opens August 3\, 2020

SUMMARY:Critical Reflections about Equity in Education with Dr. John B. King and Dr. Janice K. Jackson
DESCRIPTION:As students and educators begin a new school year amid the ongoing upheaval of the global pandemic and worldwide demonstrations against systemic racism\, essential questions about equity in education are taking center stage. \nPlease join us for our first conversation in a year-long series\, Facing History Now: Conversations on Equity and Justice\, with Dr. John B. King\, CEO of The Education Trust and former US Secretary of Education\, and Dr. Janice K. Jackson\, CEO of Chicago Public Schools. Drs. King and Jackson will discuss the role of education in this moment of national reckoning\, and the importance of civic agency in our classrooms. This couldn’t be better highlighted than in our unique partnership with Dr. Jackson and the Chicago Public School system\, where we are training all middle and high school social science teachers to teach three of our core case studies. \nDR. JOHN B. KING\nJohn B. King Jr. is the president and CEO of The Education Trust\, a national nonprofit organization that seeks to identify and close educational opportunity and achievement gaps. King served as U.S. Secretary of Education in the Obama administration. Prior to that role\, King carried out the duties of Deputy Secretary\, overseeing policies and programs related to P-12 education\, English learners\, special education\, innovation\, and agency operations. King joined the department following his post as New York State Education Commissioner. King began his career as a high school social studies teacher and middle school principal. \nDR. JANICE K. JACKSON\nAs a former student\, teacher\, principal\, network chief\, and chief education officer\, and now as chief executive officer\, Dr. Janice K. Jackson has been immersed in Chicago Public Schools her entire life. \nAs CEO of the third largest school district in the country\, Dr. Jackson is a forward-thinking educator who is focused on improving excellence\, equity\, and access to high-quality education in all CPS schools. Her efforts\, along with those of Chicago’s dedicated teachers and principals\, have propelled CPS students to record-breaking academic gains\, and education experts across the country regard Chicago as a national leader in urban education. \nA lifelong educator\, Dr. Jackson is committed to providing all schools with a clear framework for excellence. She holds a master’s degree in leadership and administration and a doctorate in urban school leadership from the University of Illinois at Chicago. She resides in Chicago with her husband and two children\, both CPS students.
