The Overlooked Context Pedagogies for Engagement and Empowerment at the Community CollegeCultural responsiveness is a skill that is developed to respond to students' needs as they arise, similar to the way a baseball player fields a ball that is hit; no one can predict the exact bounce the ball will take, but keen awareness and finesse are needed for a productive response with favorable outcomes. Culturally responsive educators use multiple approaches to make students feel visible, valued, and essential in the classroom learning environment.
