Teacher Workshops

AAAL has developed a series of hands-on learning workshops for teachers centered on the value of using culturally competent methodology to engage African-American learners.

Building upon discussions and presentations during our educational conferences, AAAL is currently offering a long-term teacher training session based on the theme of Reclaiming the Hearts and Minds of the African American Learner, which includes a seminar with Gail Thompson, author of Through Ebony Eyes.
