Speaker: Gerry Yokota (Osaka University, Kansai University, and Ritsumeikan University) Terry R. Tuttle (Moriguchi City Board of Education)

Description:
This workshop is a joint event with Kobe JALT and the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion Committee of JALT. It will be a professional development opportunity for attendees to learn about microaggressions: what they are and how to transform them into opportunities for growth and connection in the classroom, in the workplace, and in other professional situations. We will begin with a basic introduction to the concept of microaggressions and provide models of fundamental strategies for intervention, with ample time for Q&A. Attendees will then be invited to engage in groups with scenarios based on typical situations encountered in diverse work environments. Attendees are encouraged to bring examples of guidelines and codes of conduct from their own schools and workplaces for critical examination.
