July 10, 2018 8:30 am - 5:00 pm (7 PDPs) In a 1990 article "Mirrors, Windows, and Sliding Glass Doors," Rudine Sims Bishop, Professor Emerita of Education at Ohio State University, introduced the metaphor of mirrors, windows, and doors. Children's books, she argued, need to reflect readers' identities and they need to open their eyes to the world beyond their lived experience. Join educators throughout the region for a one-day workshop exploring diversity and inclusion in children's books and how we, as educators, can provide "mirrors and windows" for children and students.
