Shifting with Dr. Malik Small
from NYS TESOL: Shifting Teaching Paradigms Hosted by NYS TESOL Conference 2022
First, I’d like to offer a correction!! At the end of this episode, I state that Malik will be speaking on Nov 4th, but it is in fact Saturday, Nov 5th!! Mark your calendars as he will be out opening speaker that day! Dr. Malik A. Small is a middle school principal in the community of East New York Brooklyn with over ten years of experience in educational leadership, both in charter as well as district schools. He is a passionate advocate for social justice, restorative practices, culturally responsive education, equity in schools and empowering children, families and communities to close the opportunity gap that persists due to institutionalized racism. Dr. Small is a public speaker and frequent guest and panelist in forums that include The Heather B Show, The Raw Perspective, & The Dr. Selma B Show. He is also a proud member of the Off School Grounds Coalition. Dr. Small also sits as a board member on the Mount Vernon Youth Board and is a member of the Eagle Foundation/BERC Pilot Design Team for the Education Equity Action Plan. He is currently working on several books and was recently published in the National Association of Secondary School Principals Journal. In this episode, Dr. Small shares the difference between being “schooled” and being “educated,” how to close the exposure and opportunity gaps prevalent in a number of schools, and how he is changing the paradigm of what mindfulness looks like at his school.
