ABOUT JACQUELYNNE BOIVIN

I am an Assistant Professor of Elementary and Early Childhood Education at Bridgewater State University in Bridgewater, MA, USA, where I supervise student teachers, mentor honors thesis projects, and teach math methods to elementary teacher candidates and seminars on deconstructing racism by integrating schools and decolonizing social studies curricula. I am co-chair of my department’s Anti-Racism Matters Committee and I support and facilitates student and faculty professional development focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion. I am also co-chair of the College of Education and Health Sciences’ Diversity and Equity Steering Committee. I am a former elementary school teacher who uses her experience in the field to contextualize her instruction in teacher-preparation. I am the author of the book, Exploring the Role of the School Principal in Predominantly White Middle Schools: School Leadership to Promote Multicultural Understanding and co-editor of Education as the Driving Force of Equity for the Marginalized, The Role of Educators as Agents and Conveyors for Positive Change in Global Education, and STEM Education Approaches and Challenges in the MENA Region. My largest passion is authentically connecting academic disciplines with social justice skills and understandings. In my spare time, I enjoy outdoor adventures with her husband, Craig, a warm cup of tea with a good book and my cat, and cooking and baking with locally sourced ingredients.
