The UN Works for International Peace and Security
Did You Know? 7 Since 1945, the UN has assisted in negotiating more than 170 peace settlements that have ended regional conflicts. 7 The United Nations played a role in bringing about independence in more than 80 countries that are now sovereign nations. 7 Over 500 multinational treaties – on human rights, terrorism, international crime, refugees, disarmament, commodities and the oceans – have been enacted through the efforts of the United Nations. 7 The World Food Programme, the world’s largest humanitarian agency, reaches on average 90 million hungry people in 80 countries every year. 7 An estimated 90 per cent of global conflict-related deaths since 1990 have been civilians, and 80 percent of these have been women and children. 7 If each poor person on the planet had the same energy-rich lifestyle as an average person in Germany or the United Kingdom, four planets would be needed to safely cope with the pollution. That figure rises to nine planets when compared with the average of the United States or Canada. 07-26304—DPI/1888/Rev.3—August 2008—15M Everything You Always Wanted to Know About the United Nations FOR STUDENTS AT INTERMEDIATE AND SECONDARY LEVELS United Nations Department of Public Information New York, 2010 An introduction to the United Nations i Material contained in this book is not subject to copyright.

Navigating Black Identity Development: the Power of Interactive Multicultural Read Alouds with Elementary-Aged Children
education sciences Article Navigating Black Identity Development: The Power of Interactive Multicultural Read Alouds with Elementary-Aged Children Rebekah E. Piper College of Education and Human Development, Texas A&M University-San Antonio, San Antonio, TX 78224, USA; [email protected] Received: 9 April 2019; Accepted: 23 April 2019; Published: 18 June 2019 Abstract: Racial identity development in young children is influenced by interactions with teachers and curriculum in schools. This article, using the framework of critical race theory, critical literacy, and critical pedagogy, explores how three elementary-aged Black children view their own identity development. Specifically, observing how children interact with Movement-Oriented Civil Rights-Themed Children’s Literature (MO-CRiTLit) in the context of a non-traditional summer literacy program, Freedom Schools, to influence their Black identity. Professional development and preservice teacher preparation are needed to support teachers as they navigate through learning about pedagogical practices that increase student engagement. Keywords: critical literacy; Civil Rights; Black identity; children 1. Introduction The central question addressed by the Supreme Court during the Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas (1954) [1] was whether the segregation of children in public schools based on their race, deprived minoritized children of equal educational opportunities when everything else was equal [2–4]. This question has been, and continues to be, answered in the negative, as evidenced in an educational system in which Children of Color are repeatedly reported to have lower reading and numeracy scores in comparison to their white peers. In 2003, Education Trust, Inc. reported that, nationally, fourth-grade African-Americans fell behind their white peers in reading. -

11 a Framework for Integrating Ecological Literacy, Civics Literacy, and Environmental Citizenship in Environmental Education
//INTEGRAS/TEMPLATES///INTEGRAS/CUP/PHASE1/PAGINATION/LIVEJOB_022_EEA/PAGEPROOF/3B2/0521824109C11.3D – 227 – [227–266/40] 19.10.2004 9:32PM ALAN R. BERKOWITZ, MARY E. FORD AND CAROL A. BREWER 11 A framework for integrating ecological literacy, civics literacy, and environmental citizenship in environmental education INTRODUCTION Environmental education practitioners span all of the natural and social sciences in terms of their training and passion. Practitioners have a range of science backgrounds, from very little science back- ground to science degrees and some view science as a root cause of environmental problems. The matter is made more complicated by the fact that environmental education does not have a professional train- ing dimension in the same way that physics or sociology do. Although such training gives disciplines focus and rigor, some say this leads to a rigidity that environmental education does not require. Thus, there is a diversity of perspectives on the role the science of ecology should play in environmental education. There are two concerns about ecology in environmental educa- tion. First, the ecology can reflect outdated ecological science and epistemology. Second, at times, too much or too little attention is given to ecology, or there may be an overly rigid, linear, and hierarch- ical view of environmental education building on science (ecology) ‘‘facts’’ toward ‘‘environmentally responsible behaviors.’’ There are several reasons why these problems arise and persist. Educators who emphasize ‘‘Environmental Literacy,’’ or ‘‘Citizenship’’ as the primary mission of environmental education, especially those advocating the development of ‘‘pro-environment values,’’ or ‘‘environmentally responsible behavior,’’ can at times ignore, misinterpret, or take a strong oppositional stance towards the science component of environ- mental education. -

The Role of Children's Racial Identity and Its Impact on Their
THE ROLE OF CHILDREN’S RACIAL IDENTITY AND ITS IMPACT ON THEIR SCIENCE EDUCATION by Lisa Mekia McDonald Dissertation Committee: Professor Felicia Moore Mensah, Sponsor Professor Denise Mahfood Approved by the Committee on the Degree of Doctor of Education Date: ___________________________________February 12, 2020 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Education in Teachers College, Columbia University 2020 ABSTRACT THE ROLE OF CHILDREN’S RACIAL IDENTITY AND ITS IMPACT ON THEIR SCIENCE EDUCATION Lisa Mekia McDonald Racial identity plays an important role in the development of children’s narratives. In the structure of the classroom there is a disconnect for students between home and school. The structure of the classroom consists of the social relationships that children have with their peers and teachers. The structure of the classroom also includes how the classroom is set up for learning, such as the curriculum. Racial identity is also a valuable aspect in the construction of knowledge as children learn science. Racial identity is not often addressed with young children and science. Young children need to be able to see themselves in science regardless of their own race or ethnicity. Critical race theory (CRT) was used to examine and situate the context of race with children’s identity. Sociocultural theory was used to describe their process of learning. The participants of this study included 10 children in grades 3 through 5 who attended a diverse urban school located in New York City and their parents (10 parents). A qualitative approach was used to allow both children and parents to share their perspectives on their experience with science and difficult topics that pertain to race and/or skin color. -

Lac University of Texas-San Antonio, San Antonio, USA Introduction I enter this teacher action research project with an interest in studying how I, as a high school teacher, developed a critical race pedagogy (CRP) curriculum for students in an out-of-school context. My intrigue with race started at an early age growing up in Oakland, California, where my classmates were primarily of African American, Central American, and Southeast Asian descent. As a Southeast Asian student in Oakland schools, even with 100% students of color in my classes, my teachers in school rarely talked about race or racism.
