Conversation with Dr. Jeremy Price

On Friday, August 30, 2024, from 12 noon to 1 p.m., Dr. Jeremy Price will talk about “Infrastructures for Empowering Community-School Networks to Promote Equitable and Inclusive Change.”

Public schools play a pivotal role in shaping our future, preserving our history, nurturing informed citizens, and serving as vital community centers. However, they can also be places where children, especially those from marginalized communities, encounter challenges and trauma. Families often face difficulties advocating for their children's unique needs, cultures, languages, and traditions.

Dr. Jeremy Price will discuss his work on creating equitable, inclusive, and supportive learning environments through community-engaged research. He and his team have partnered with families, educators, and institutions on projects like a statewide initiative for culturally responsive remote teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic, and efforts in the Near East Side of Indianapolis to develop place-centered, culturally sustaining STEM learning environments. Join this conversation to learn how Dr. Price has transformed theoretical frameworks from the social studies of science and technology into practical strategies and concrete infrastructures for effective community collaboration.
