PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS, SPECIAL EVENTS, AND CONFERENCES DEVELOPED AND LED: • “Leaders of Social Justice in Education” PDe3 course (January 2020 – November 2021). I collaborated with Dr. Patricia Halagao and graduate student Ger Thao to design and implement both a face-to-face and online version of a Leaders in Social Justice Education course that was offered for both UHM and HIDOE credit. This course provides a general overview of theory and research behind social justice education, explores Teaching Tolerance resource materials and Social Justice Education Standards, and will helps teachers and 6 students bridge connections to local organizations that do social justice work. Over 50 participants applied to be a part of the cohort and 25 were accepted. • “Community By Design: How School Structures, Traditions, and Daily Routines Can Create Collaborative Civic Space and Promote Life in a Diverse Democracy” (December, 2019). I collaborated with the Hawai‘i Association of Independent Schools (HAIS) to design a “learning walk,” which provided educators with the opportunity to observe and reflect on the ways thoughtful school structures, traditions, and daily routines can transform schools into collaborative civic spaces that promote active participation in a diverse democracy. The carefully designed experience highlighted how Hanahau‘oli School has used the last 100 years to translate progressive education philosophy into practice. It provided participants with concrete examples of school structures, traditions, and daily routines that cultivate and nurture an overall positive school culture, build community, and address the social-emotional needs of individual learners. This event was attended by eleven school leaders. • “Philosophy for Children (P4C): Cultivating Inquiry, Dialogue, and Collaborative Civic Space” (November, 2019). I collaborated with my colleagues at the Uehiro Academy to desing and lead a one day workshop about philosophy for children Hawai‘i. This workshop was designed for K-12 educators, higher education faculty, and community educators who are interested in exploring how p4c Hawai‘i can be applied to contexts outside of the regular classroom setting. It is also designed for teachers who are interested in interdisciplinary and integrated approaches to education, as well as teachers who want to apply the practice to traditional subject areas and coursework. Thirty-two public, private, and charter school teachers, school leaders, and teacher candidates attended this workshop. • “Immigration, Exclusion, and the American Dream: Teaching the Chinese Exclusion Act to Reflect on Current Times” (September, 2019). I collaborated with Dr. Gregory Mark and Dr, Bryan Man, members of the Chinese Community Action Coalition, to share a film and panel conversation about the history of Chinese Americans. Ms. Jingwoan Chang, Hanahau'oli School's JK-6 Mandarin teacher, and I also explained how the film can be use in the K-12 classroom. • “Climate-Conscious Futures for the Well-Being of All: Teaching About Climate Change and Peace in the K- 12 Classroom” (September, 2019). I collaborated with the Institute for Climate and Peace to develop and lead a workshop for K-12 educators who want to learn more about the changing climate and its impacts on society. Participants were provided with the opportunity to engage in a series of learning opportunities that better equipped them for teaching about climate change in the K-12 classroom. It introduced educators to key concepts and classroom strategies for the purpose of creating more climate-conscious and empowered students. Participants also learned why classroom teaching and learning about climate-change is inextricably linked to the concept of peace, and how the pairing of these two concepts in K-12 education will help to advance effective and inclusive processes to build peaceful and climate-conscious futures for the well-being of all. • “Philosophy for Children Hawaii Summer Symposium” (July 2019). From July 14 - 20, my colleagues and I at the UHM Uehiro Academy hosted the first annual p4cHI Summer Symposium. This week-long intensive is modeled after the Institute for the Advancement of Philosophy for Children’s annual Summer Seminar, which formally served as the premiere educational experience for novice and experienced graduate students, teachers, professors and others from around the world who have interest or experience in using the Philosophy for Children curriculum and methodology. Now that the IAPC’s program is no longer running, the p4cHI Summer Symposium is helping to meet the growing demand of people from across the globe who are looking to engage in a one-in-a-lifetime educational experience that will introduce participants to both the theory and practice of p4cHI through hands on engagement in an “intellectually safe” philosophical community of inquiry and classroom visits. In Summer 2019 we had 15 attendees from across the US and internationally. o “Intellectual Safety” (July 15, 2019), as a part of the p4cHI summer symposium I designed and lead a three hour session about the importance of creating intellectually safe communities of inquiry when doing philosophy with children. o “Philosopher’s Pedagogy” (July 18, 2019) as a part of the p4cHI summer symposium co-designed and lead, along with Dr. Chad Miller, a three hour session about the philosopher’s pedagogy, which is an approach to teaching and learning that I specialize in at the Uehiro Academy. o “Philosophy for Children Reflection and Assessment Tools” (July 19, 2019) as a part of the p4cHI summer symposium co-designed and lead, along with Dr. Chad Miller, a three hour session about reflection and assessment tools used in Philosophy for Children locally and internationally. • “Culturally-Responsive Teaching and Learning: What Can We Learn From Hawai‘i?” (July 2019), I planned and lead a workshop for 20 University of Wisconson Eau Claire undergraduate and graduate students who visited Hawaii to learn more about the impact of tourism on Native Hawaiians.

Through a series of activities, dialogue, and shared inquiry this group built connections and created space to work on how Hawai’i builds its capacity for the professional development of teachers and becomes a model of doing so.

PROGRAM/CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS: • Masters of Education in Curriculum Studies: Interdisciplinary Education with a concentration in Progressive Philosophy and Pedagogy (2019 – Present) I am collaborating with UHM COE Curriculum Studies Department Head, Dr. Patricia Halagao and Uehiro Academy Director of Teacher Education to design and launch (Spring 2020) a two-year, thirty-credit graduate program designed for educators and researchers--from diverse disciplines and contexts--who are interested in building our collective capacity for creating a better future society for today’s children. Unique to the University of Hawaii at Manoa (UHM)--the program is grounded in a sense of place and built upon partnerships between UHM’s College of Education and a number of local schools and organizations who are bringing the theories and practices of early progressive educators into the twenty-first century. The primarily field-based, interdisciplinary, and culturally sustaining educative experiences in the program are co-constructed by University faculty, community partners, and program participants. Within this community of inquiry, participants wrestle with real-world problems first hand and collaborate to carry forward the larger project of social justice. At the program’s completion, participants submit a portfolio that demonstrates individual and collective progress made during program experiences, inquiry, dialogue, action, and reflection. • Progressive Youth Leadership Academy (2019 – Present) designed and taught a summer seminar for adolescent youth via the Hanahau’oli School Summer Program.

Participants also identify an area of focus, then develop and lead a learning experience for Hanahau’oli ASC students around their passion or 12 interest. At the end of the program participants reflect on and document their experience by writing a personal essay that explains how their unique style of leadership is a vital expression of citizenship in our diverse democracy. • Resources for Culturally Responsive and Sustaining Social Studies Teaching and Learning in Hawai‘i HIDOE Professional Development Module (2018 – Present) In 2018, I was commissioned by the Hawaii State Department of Education to create a catalog of place-based resources for culturally-responsive social studies teaching and learning in Hawai‘i.

RESEARCH PROJECTS: • Principal Investigator, Waikiki Elementary School Portrait Project (2018 – Present) [CHS # 2018-00096] who is working with a graduate assistant (funded by The Learning Coalition) to explore the evolution of the Waikiki Elementary School (WES) community over time and to compile a “portrait” that documents the key people, initiatives, and programs that have positively impacted the school culture and climate. Currently, we are in the process of conducting qualitative interviews with current and former members of the WES community. 18 • Liaison for International Citizenship Education Research Project (2018 – Present) who helps to coordinate Drs. Suguru Fukui (Kagoshima University), Jinichirou Saitou (Kyushu University), and Kenta Sora (Gifu University) as they conduct an international research project designed to compare and contrast citizenship education in different countries. • Co-Principal Investigator, Kailua High School Portrait Project (2016 – Present) [CHS #30119] who is working alongside Dr. Jane Chung-Do from the UHM Department of Public Health to explore the evolution of the Kailua High School (KHS) community over time and to compile a “portrait” that documents the key people, initiatives, and programs that have positively impacted the school culture and climate. Currently, we are in the process of conducting and analyzing qualitative interviews with current and former members of the KHS community. • Principal Investigator, p4cHI International Journaling and Self-Study Project (2012 – Present) who facilitates this ongoing study into the professional practice of philosophy for children Hawaii with international colleagues, including: Sugur Fukui of Kagoshima University (JAPAN), Ching-Sze Wang of National Chiayi University (TAIWAN), Mitsuyo Toyoda of the Tokyo Institute of Technology (JAPAN), Karen Ragoonaden of the University of British Columbia (CANADA), Afsheen Nawaz of the John Hampden Infant School (UK), Anne Yeh of the National Chiayi University (TAIWAN), and Lu Leng of Guangzhou University (CHINA). Currently, the group has published four refereed journals/book chapters to disseminate research results. • Principal Investigator, Philosophical Inquiry Longitudinal Study (2013 – 2016) [CHS #21621] who collaborated with the HIDOE to develop, implement, research, and institutionalize a brand new secondary social studies elective titled “Philosophical Inquiry.” As the principal investigator I secured proper HIDOE and UHM approvals and designed and implemented the research agenda (methods, instruments, recruitment, data collection, data analysis, and dissemination). I published one book chapter to disseminate research results. • Principal Investigator, Creating Communities for Ethical Research (2015) [CHS #23115], who collaborated with Cindy Scheopner and Roxanne Raine to research new approaches to graduate student research ethics training. This study has been deferred until funding is secured. • Key Personnel, Kailua High School Ethnic Studies Class Evaluation (2005 – 2008) [CHS #13874, CHS #13874, CHS #13874, CHS #15344] who collaborated with the Asian Pacific Islander Youth Violence Prevention Center and the HIDOE to secure proper HIDOE and UHM approvals, design and implement a high school Ethnic Studies course, and design and implement a comprehensive mixed-method research agenda (methods, instruments, recruitment, data collection, data analysis, and dissemination). I published six refereed journals/book chapters and a dissertation to disseminate research results.
