In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? I now have a much stronger "stop and think" mechanism to my planning and interactions with materials.
A quality resource that has opened up a number of discussions around cultural identity and thoughts around racism.

How effective was the use of social Media for Fighting Social Injustice It was great because it is a social media platform that they already use so much. I feel they are more informed citizens now.

In what ways did this kit empower your students to challenge racism? It made my students think about some of the language they use in our school setting. It opened up some really important conversations about micro-aggressions and standing up against racist talk.

How effective was the use of social Media for Fighting Social Injustice Some success in this area that I will build on with this group as we move through the year.
In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? It was a really important part of this process for me. I was able to reflect on my own biases, on gaps in my teaching and areas for improvement.
This school kit got some really good engagement from students especially in Year 9/10 group. It is a great entry point to further learning in this area, particularly as they move towards NCEA. I am so grateful I was able to receive this kit!

This was a great kit that got our tauira and kaiako alike thinking about racism in our kura and community. It allowed our students a chance to present their experiences and prompted some great discussions within staff about how we can be better

In what ways did this kit empower your students to challenge racism? Students loved exploring stereotypes as their "way in" to this topic. Awesome conversations about racism and challenging these within their own spheres of influence.

How effective was the use of social Media for Fighting Social Injustice Challenging, but I love how the template can be adapted for future courses - eg. a journalism elective that I am running later this year.
In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? A fantastic resource - this encouraged me to think deeply, and challenge the way that my teaching is inherently biased. I appreciated the opportunity to better my craft by practicing the values that I preach!
Beautifully designed resources that students enjoyed exploring to deepen their understanding of racism.

In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? This was significant and had so many powerful resources for me to work my way through - I am still working my way through some resources, and also like to revisit.
A very powerful tool - especially the teacher journal, with may. rich resources for myself to work through. Was thought provoking, and highly interesting

In what ways did this kit empower your students to challenge racism? As we have a number of Asian students, now they have more strategies to challenge the misconceptions and be more outspoken.

In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? It made me think of my personal biases and challenge them. I see that small steps can make a huge difference. A small gesture by their teachers can make students feel more empowered.
The School Kit is great resource which works well in a classroom. The activities are engaging and thought provoking. The students learn by collaborating and by having discussions around the topic of racism. The journal helps the teachers to have a deeper understanding of different ethnicities and plan more inclusive activities.

In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? Because I've been focusing on my anti-racism journey the past few years, a lot of the journal resonated with my own learning prior to receiving it. That said, I definitely found the prompts and graphics (particularly the flow chart and covert racism pyram
I most appreciate the posters -- and students do too! So much good information and paths for extending student learning. Also super handy to be able to point to them as we're discussing books like The Pōrangi Boy and The Hate U Give. I chose not to have students play the Not in My World game because I felt it encouraged stereotyping, and I didn't want my students who belong to some of those identities to experience those stereotypes (even if the overall intent of the exercise was good).
