​STUDENTS AS TEACHERS:
LEVERAGING YOUTH VOICE FOR ACADEMIC AND CIVIC LEARNING
​
Wednesday,
​February, 28th

4:45-6:45 pm
​ ​
(Pizza served at 4:35 pm)
President’s Conference Room 2, Rosenthal Library, Queens College

This interactive session will encourage participants to think about Youth
Participatory Action Research as a curricular and pedagogical model that
centers youth voice as part of a humanizing pedagogy in schools. Presenters
share their expertise in leveraging dialogue, inquiry, and performance as
pedagogical strategies for engaging the academic and civic identities of
students.

As part of the Cyphers for Justice and QC College Now program, a team of
high school youth, researchers, pre-service teachers, and university
instructors came together to co-develop and direct research projects that
featured exploration of social issues such as the impact of testing on
students, the role of culturally relevant curriculum on student motivation,
and violence in schools. This intergenerational approach leveraged Youth
Participatory Action Research and culturally responsive methodologies to
center youth as experts and advocates to enact change in their communities
and their immediate educational contexts.

Dr. Danielle Filipiak received her PhD in English Education from Teachers
College, Columbia University, and will be starting a tenure track position
this fall as Assistant Professor of English Education at the University of
Connecticut.  Danielle’s publications and research interests span the
fields of critical adolescent literacies, teacher education, and digital
literacies.

Dr. Limarys Caraballo is an assistant professor in the Secondary Education
department at Queens College, and in the Urban Education program at The

research on teachers’ curriculum and pedagogy. Dr. Caraballo directs the
Complicated Conversations Series to encourage conversation among students,
