NEIR Indicators
Normalizing
Educational experiences connect students to previous “lived” experiences and feel relatable and comfortable to students.
Empowering
Students are assets in their classroom. They have agency and independence to build self-efficacy. They are responsible for and recognized for their own learning and the learning of others.
Inclusive
Educators are aware of and responsive to the ways that students are marginalized by our current education system and educators’ and students’ explicit and implicit bias (positive and negative).
Relevant
Students experience “relatedness” with their teachers and a learning relevant to their lives through direct connections to their community, their country and the world and an appreciation of diverse cultural experiences.
