Competency-based Antiracist Education

Abstract

From white nationalism to backlash against racial progress, recent years have dramatized the urgency of antiracist teaching and learning. This paper presents a framework that serves as a basis for developing a Scholarship of Antiracist Teaching and Learning. It describes antiracist competencies that can inform curriculum, pedagogy and assessment. These include recognizing, analyzing, and changing the conditions leading to racial inequity. The paper explores how competency-based antiracist teaching and learning can help the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning to fulfill its obligation to promote social justice.
