Janna Bernstein (Service Learning and Leadership), recently presented at the Association of Leadership Educators conference in Chicago. Her presentation, "What are Funds of Knowledge? A Collaborative Approach to Leadership Education," focused on the importance of using the identities of both student and teacher to facilitate culturally conscious conversations in leadership courses. Attendees learned how engaging “funds of knowledge” in the classroom encourages inclusive and holistic learning environments and provided best practices for classroom implementation.
