It's not you, it's me: How to break up with implicit bias in education
By Jennifer Haston-Maciejewski
What are your triggers? What are your core values? What beliefs have you quietly absorbed from your lived experiences?
When we pause, reflect, and ask ourselves the tough, uncomfortable questions—while being honest in the process—we can uncover hidden biases and begin to shift how we think about school behavior and discipline.
This book invites readers to quiet their minds, confront unspoken assumptions, and examine the ways they respond to students who don’t “fit in the box.” Through mindful awareness, educators can begin to break up with their biases.
While race is often the headline equity conversation, what about students from low-income backgrounds, those with disabilities, behavioral challenges, or simply different values and perspectives? Sometimes, something as simple as how a student dresses can unconsciously shape how they’re treated.
Through weekly action steps and reflection prompts, this book challenges educators to dig deep, uncover the truths that shape their classroom management, and perhaps transform their entire educational philosophy.

If This Chalkboard Could Talk
If This Chalkboard Could Talk
By Matthew X. Joseph and Over 20 Global Educators
Educators are driven, intelligent, and creative. We go 100 miles an hour and have to schedule our bathroom breaks. We talk about lessons, data, and all sorts of Buzz words. We also have stories people outside the profession would not believe. We say, "You can't make this up."
