Guest Posts and Book Clubs!
Over at Equality101.net, we have some super exciting things happening, so be sure to check them out!
First, we’re hosting a monthly book club! So join in!
Summer is fast approaching, and here at Equality 101, we thought it might be a good idea to start an education-related book club to stay well-versed and generate more discussion in education-related topics over the summer and well into the school year!
So that’s exactly what we’re doing! Every month, we’ll read a book that will be chosen based on a poll of the members. We may read books that have to do with education, books and memoirs written by educators, novels our teen students may be reading, books that might be beneficial to teach or reference in the classroom… anything! Some of us may review the book here on the blog, and we will have an open thread on the blog toward the end of the month for everyone to post their thoughts on the book!
Sound like fun? Of course it does! So join up! You can join the Goodreads group to get started, and when you do, be sure to take the poll to help decide our first book! This month will be a short month, as our book will be selected by April 9, and then at the end of April, we’ll post the open discussion. In the last week of April, we’ll vote for May’s book.
Want to get involved but don’t have a Goodreads account? E-mail ashley@equality101.net or leave a comment here and we’ll get you in on the action!
Second, we’re looking for guest posters, and would love to have you on board!
Are you an educator or a student? Do you have something to say about equality and education? Equality 101 is looking for guest bloggers, and you’re invited to participate!
We publish short articles about, broadly, equality in education. We’ve covered topics such as feminism, gender studies, trans activism, and racism, all through the lens of education with the goal of making our schools more equal and equitable for our students and ourselves. We respond to the news, discuss our thoughts, ask questions, post lesson plans,curricula and activities, book reviews, and much more. And we want you to be involved!
If you’re interested in writing a guest post (or a guest series!) for Equality 101, please get in contact with Lacey, our guest post coordinator, by emailing her at lacey@equality101.net. You can send her a pitch, an article, some ideas, or any of your questions, and she will work with you to get your writing on the blog. We’re open to cross-posting, as well, if you write for another blog.
We look forward to seeing your writing on our site! Happy teaching!
