Testimonials
I liked the passion you have for the topic because it made your presentation naturally engaging. Your presentation made me reflect on how I build relationships with my students and how I must remain intentional in doing so, especially in a virtual setting.
Dr. Thornton opened my eyes with the type of children’s literature she shared during her presentation. Her literature choices and small group activities helped me break down my thoughts when choosing literature to suit my students’ socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds.
Dr. Thornton’s session helped me to look at things in a different light. Especially the way we look at our students and how to teach them. Learning about culturally relevant teaching caused me to reflect on my beliefs, so I can say this session was very impactful.
