Warm Demander Teachers: Healthy, Whole, and Transformational (Original PDF from Publisher)

By Franita Ware

Foster a culture of student achievement through authentic relationships and student leadership

Expanding her groundbreaking study on Warm Demander pedagogy, Franita Ware offers educators a framework for restoring their ideals about teaching and creating more rewarding and engaging learning experiences. Beginning with a deep dive into Radical Self-Care, the author addresses the harmful effects of stress on teachers and students.

Subsequent chapters instruct educators on how to start their journey to become Warm Demander Teachers. Exposing the challenges that educators face, the author encourages them to develop healthy identities for themselves. From there, Ware lays out a path toward collective healing from the harms of an inequitable education system, systemic racism, and intersecting systems of oppression. Engaging and eye opening throughout, Ware provides:

• Reflection-practice activities in every chapter
• Guidance for facilitators to support shared learning
• Real-world examples from Warm Demander Teachers

Warm Demander Teachers presents a new perspective and framework for promoting culturally responsive practices: fundamentally, high expectations for students are grounded in trusted, supportive relationships, and instructional strategies highlight culturally responsive inquiry and positive student learner identities. Ware’s insightful delivery provides the necessary support for educators to become healthy, whole, and transformational.
