The OER Project is partnering with the California Council for the Social Studies to present the Saturday morning keynote at the upcoming 61st Annual CCSS Conference (March 4 to 6, 2022). We asked Dr. Keith Barton to preview his talk ahead of his address.
In this video, Dr. Barton lays the groundwork for the conference’s theme of building curricula that promote justice and harmony in our society—and how we as teachers can help students work towards a better world. It’s the perfect way to get ready for the CCSS conference.
