Our team just wrapped our first in-person Institut Our team just wrapped our first in-person Institute since 2020 at the @thegraduatecenter.  Great conversations on starting your semester strong, refining syllabi and assignments, and approaches to abolitionist pedagogy. Good luck with the start of the semester, @cunyedu colleagues! 📸 by @le_ors_
Robert P. Robinson and Nina Rose Fischer, John Jay Robert P. Robinson and Nina Rose Fischer, John Jay (Part II): 

We take our experiences back to the fellowship team and think of ways to extend, adapt, or revise activities. In essence, we teach and learn as a collective while we teach and learn within our respective classrooms. This shared and individual focus on pedagogy has re-energized us and our practice.

More info on us:

Robert's perspective

I am a 1st generation college grad. I graduated with a Ph.D. in Urban Education (and certificates in Africana Studies & Interactive Technology & Pedagogy) from the CUNY Graduate Center. Since joining John Jay College this fall, I have been able to build on my practice of critical pedagogies through my work with the SEEK (Search for Elevation, Education, and Knowledge) Department at John Jay. Drawing from lessons in my research on Black education history, I employ an asset-based approach in both my one-on-one and classroom pedagogies to build and dream alongside students.

Nina Rose's perspective

I am a 2nd generation CUNY baby. My parents were able to get out of poverty in the Bronx because CUNY was free when they went to City (1958-61) and Hunter (1961-65). CUNY was the ticket out of public housing for my mother. For my father, he could finally stop sleeping in the living room with his grandfather and sister. John Jay, where I am fortunate to teach after getting my Ph.D. through the CUNY Graduate Center, continues my parent’s legacy. John Jay was recognized once again for enhancing student economic mobility. My family believes deeply in social justice for all through education. Not surprisingly I teach in the Department of Interdisciplinary studies where we employ Freirean collaborative, praxis-based pedagogy through a critical race, gender, and class lens to solve our most challenging social justice issues to continue that CUNY legacy!
