Facilitators: Pedro Bermudez


This two-day institute is geared to educators new to the work of SRI and prepares educators to be full participants in collaborative learning teams, professional learning communities, or other professional communities of practice. We will work together to create a reflective learning community, learning the concepts, habits, tools, and skills that lead to more reflective practice and increase student achievement. The Introduction to SRI Institute supports participants to take up issues of educational equity in schools, to learn to be in conversation about race and identify and interrupt instances of systemic oppression and inequity in their schools. Workshop participants have the opportunity to present authentic work from their practice for review and feedback under the guidance of a highly-skilled SRI facilitator. Participants leave this workshop with tools and strategies to:
  • Use protocols to build the skills and culture needed for reflective dialogue and collaboration;
  • Engage in collaborative examination of student and educator work, and manage school dilemmas;
  • Give and receive constructive feedback; and
  • Work in ways that challenge each other’s assumptions about educational excellence and equity.
