Collecting human rights data, including Indigenous status, race, disability, gender, age & socio-economic status, along with consulting vulnerable groups, is the foundation of evidence-informed decision-making & action on vital matters like #COVID-19. #WorldStatisticsDay

[Cathy Marks Krpan @CathyMarksKrpan]

Some questions to check for biases in our teaching:
Do I provide diverse ways for Ss to share learning?
Do our class norms value diverse ways of interacting?
Do I check for culture bias in texts/word problems?
Do I ensure that ALL parents are able to access to info sent home?

[Brian Aspinall @mraspinall]
