Social Justice in Education Award (2013) Lecture: Jeannie Oakes (#91涩漫SJ)

Evidence and Activism: Research to Challenge Structures of Inequality
Time: Sat, Apr 27 - 7:00 - 8:00 pm
Place: Hilton Union Square, Ballroom Level - Continental 5

In her lecture, Jeannie Oakes will explore the idea that efforts to make schools more socially just are most compelling when they are driven by a blend of social theory, evidence, and activism. The power of this blend is revealed in analyses of the shifting landscape of economic and social inequality over the past several decades and in educators’ and activists’ work to disrupt the links between economic and social inequality and educational opportunities and outcomes. Oakes's analysis makes clear that social scientists must play a critical role in the struggle for socially just schooling.
