Beyond Instruction

Abstract

This chapter will focus on creating culturally relevant online learning environments through a critical investigation of the culturally relevant leadership learning model. Within this chapter, there will be a discussion and explanation of the model and its continued use from the perspectives of both course instructors and students who co-create the online learning environment. This chapter will highlight testimony from chapter authors and offer reflective questions for readers to gain insight into effective practices of creating online culturally relevant learning environments in their unique perspectives. While this chapter focuses heavily on higher education learning environments, connections and applications to all educational environments are made for applicability across various contexts.
