Teacher’s Notes
Asset-Based Pedagogy
This section of the module is intended to introduce or review concepts of Asset-Based Pedagogies. These concepts underpin the information in all other modules so we encourage participants to complete this section first.
In order to decide if you should direct participants to this section, you can ask yourself the following questions:
- Are participants familiar with the concepts of deficit approaches, difference approaches, and asset-based approaches?
- Are participants familiar with the concepts of Culturally Relevant and Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy?
If participants are not familiar, or only somewhat familiar with these concepts, we advise that this section be completed before progressing to other parts of the module.
