#HipHopEd Chat is a weekly cyber cypher (chat) where stakeholders within Hip-Hop and Education come together to discuss issues that impact the youth and adults within our local, national and global communities. #HipHopEd Chat is a virtual form of professional development for Educators, workshop for Parents and other Adults and a brainstorming session of Hip-Hop practitioners. Our #HipHopEd chats are every Tuesday from 9-10 EST. on Twitter.
A student-led movement demands student-led coverage. Join @youthradio for student reporting from 12+ #nationalstudentwalkout locations across the country.
Join us LIVE tomorrow on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and catch the highlights at https://t.co/qlfz4gevzF.
It is our intent that tonight, regardless of the subject area you teach, you will walk away with an idea as to how to integrate art into your curriculum #hiphoped
With Creativity, Communication, Critical Thinking and Collaboration being considered 21st Century Learning Skills, Art should be a part of all teaching because it embodies the 4Cs @P21Learning#hiphoped
The most popular social media brands, apps, and clothing lines come from utilization of creative processes. Many of these ARTISTS make well into 6-figures. #HipHopEd
The technical production applications between Hip Hop and STEAM are vast. Creatively thinking teachers can find several connections + opps between the two #HipHopEd
In HS English classes, the same techniques for analyzing literature can be applied to album cover art, graffiti, and other hip-hop visual arts. We read these visuals the same way we read text: what's noticeable? how do the elements interplay to make a statement? #hiphoped
Oftentimes current curriculum incentivizes CONVERGENT thinking - follow instructions to get an A, listen to the teacher to get a star - in preparation for a traditional corporate career. #HipHopEd
DJing and technical advancement is a perfect example. The changes that are made year after year create career ideas for students they can begin researching in their tweens. #HipHopEd
Classroom activities and curriculum should also be designed to encourage DIVERGENT thinking. In the massive overload of information that is the modern internet, those who are most unique - who are most divergent - prevail. #HipHopEd
Resource limitations are an unfortunate reality that must be overcome, but current technology significantly mitigates limitations regarding artistic expression and production. #HipHopEd
#hiphoped chat is hitting home tonight. Way back in HS, I was a traditional artist w/ signif interest in music. My art teacher suggested “technical drawing” where I could learn to design stereos, subwoofer enclosures, etc.
Traditional arts -> tech arts -> engr study in college
as the world moves away from traditional jobs. the only thing these Ss need is skills such as collabration, innovation and creative which every art form uses. #HipHopEd
Currently researching a school turnaround effort in which the school has reimagined itself through #HipHopEd Cross-curricular programming, pbl, recording studio, student-run art gallery
Sending our prayers and thoughts to the family, friends and fans of Craig Mack. You lived according to your convictions and for that you have left a path for others to follow to find themselves #HipHopEd
Students can tell the stories that need to be told, regardless of format, using nothing more than a mobile device, tablet, laptop, etc. The fact that I can produce music, poetry, graphics, and video on the same device is unbelievably powerful #HipHopEd
Here in Chile we are working with what we call creative languages with the ministry of education in a seminar called Fimelec! 700 leaders from the entire Valparaiso region participated! and and we evaluate in an integral way with an instrument that we have created! #hiphoped
There is a variety of open-source (FREE) software on the internet that can be used to equip students with tools to produce their own digital art. Examples are Inkscape (graphic design), GIMP (photoshop), Blender (3-d design/animation), and Audacity (audio production) #HipHopEd
The connection between Hip Hop & STEAM is only limited by the extent of the knowledge of Hip Hop culture and creatively connecting it to traditional subjects. #HipHopEd

If there's no Art in the STEM you study, you're just a computer. It takes a human to see the beauty and art in each of the elements of STEM. #HipHopEd helps us to make that connection.
Teachers hope programs like this will create “a paradigm shift to how hip-hop is viewed culturally and its place in education.” https://t.co/IXO1fXTXfF#HipHopEd
If your school only has art as a separate class that is look at as the time other teachers get a break from their students; you are in a sad state and space #hiphoped
#HipHopEd and as artist we need to create orginal masterpiece in our classes. striving daily to be the best teacher we can be. n mold our students like pottery does clay. n recognise that the clay can be changed.
When white teachers get out of their own way, they are able to see the value of equity in the urban setting that is found outside of their own cultural preferences. #HipHopEd
One assignment my students in middle school math always enjoyed was creating tessellations using pattern blocks after looking at how the different shapes relate to one another #HipHopEd
YES! This concept gets a lot of lip service, but if your teaching isn't artful, you aren't a teacher. And like any art, it takes a lot of time, talent, and support to become a master. #HipHopEd
It is critical in today's increasinly microwave hyperspeed media/art consumption cycle that we teach/emphasize that the truest art stands the test of time & never gets OLD #HipHopEd#SkipOffDaFat
As Educators we should be able to recognize and point out the teachable moments cross curricula within the arts that the students participate in outside of school. Celebrate the brilliance in what they are already doing in your classrooms #hiphoped
yes! + the arts offer tools, spaces, ways of thinking/being that are uniquely capable of enabling young people to critique societies/systems as they are + imagine them in wholly new ways...

Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning is becoming increasingly competent at performing non-creative tasks. If we 'program' our students to be robots in the classroom, they'll be replaced by REAL robots in the workplace. #HipHopEd
Our English I team has been using "zines" as an expression of self and content this year. Ss will put in the time when they get a chance to express themselves through art. #hiphoped
It is our intent that tonight, regardless of the subject area you teach, you will walk away with an idea as to how to integrate art into your curriculum #hiphoped
we create assessment tools for coexistence skills through art and applied neuroscience in our smeinaries ocn the education ministry in more than 700 students! from the region of valparaiso chile, thanks the education ministry that supports our work #hiphoped
If a student can give you back what you taught them but cannot express it using visual, auditory or performing artifacts, you haven't taught #HipHopEd#BMEsTalk
In #HipHopEdTherpay work we recognize youth art as community defined practices for catharisis and healing that can be built upon in the offices of school counselors, social workers, and psychologists. #HipHopEd
In math, teachers can have students analyze different colors, look at the ratios of primary colors, black, or white that need to be mixed to make certain colors of paint #HipHopEd
#HipHopEd here is an opportunity to get inspired by practitioners who are masters in art of writing in its various forms. Check @akilaworksongs for more information on this upcoming event

Incorporating the arts into science instruction allows students to be creative and deepen their understanding of conceptual science topics. #HipHopEd#STEM
The single parent that makes a way to care for their children while instilling a hope and belief in their future regardless of their present, is an Artist #hiphoped

Allowing students to engage in the arts provides them opportunities to be free and flex their creative muscles. A simple way of making learning fun and engaging for young people. #HipHopEd
In Hip-Hop there is still such disproportionate lack of trained art technicians, an achilies heel that leads to exploitation/comodification/dillutiing of our art & industry...We must learn to mix, master, film, edit & market our gems #HipHopEd
and we are starting brother, we are beginning, the challenge of contrur our multiversity comes, no more university or a single truth, multiversity for multiple truths! #hiphoped#hiphopedchile#multiversity

Creating spaces in schools for young people to engage in artwork acts invite to shift and shape school culture in ways that feel real to them #HipHopEd
#HipHopEd is creative art that has inform @chrisemdin#RealityPedagogy and this talk. n we need to allow the artist in us to find ways to meet our students daily
In many communities there are artists that are “self-taught” because the opportunities and supports weren’t available. These become adults that often get overlooked for not having a credential but the have the heart and the talent #HipHopEd
The single parent that makes a way to care for their children while instilling a hope and belief in their future regardless of their present, is an Artist #hiphoped
Storytelling is one of the most powerful forms of creative communication since the beginning of time, this can be used to teach in all classes. #HipHopEd
#HipHopEd providing them with a space to ve comedian, a wall to make graffiti, a medium to deejay and to host school event will nuture their artistic skills
In mathematics, when students are able to represent the content visually, auditory, or performing, it shows they have deeper conceptual understanding of the math #HipHopEd
is the process where creativity is embodied in art, the whole curriculum can become art, from freedom, from respect, from love, from the will to create a new world to enjoy learning. #hiphoped
we work with a concept that is "art liberation since art is finally the family of the person, the mother, the father, it is the free time where the person is made, and the impact is incredible as a protective factor for the creation of a better life here and now! #hiphoped
If we're going to recognize #artsintegration, we must also value "art." Not just the "fine art" & practices exhibited in "fine arts' spaces." What "art" speaks to & from students & begin there. #hiphoped
In many communities there are artists that are “self-taught” because the opportunities and supports weren’t available. These become adults that often get overlooked for not having a credential but the have the heart and the talent #HipHopEd
art itself is the ability to transform everything into a good for all, where expressions are renewed based on art, art makes daily life incredibly based on wellbeing and health, but in the preventive approach of art to better health! #hiphoped
When we discuss art conceptually it is important that we consider the class aspect of WHO is defining art who is the audience consuming the art. #hiphoped
Art has a responsibility to challenge and change society for the greater good. Are your lessons in whatever subject you’re teaching fulfilling the responsibility of Art? #HipHopEd#artsintegration
As educators, it’s importance for us to observe and cultivate those talents in our young people and provide opportunities to showcase and grow within the classroom and outside.
My city of Valparaiso is an open-air museum, the city teaches you from the synergistic chaos. Every place is a space to learn, a true creative community! #hiphoped
Discernment. Knowing why I like what I am consuming. Knowing where it comes from. Deciding what I consume & not blindly accepting what is being fed to me #BMEsTalk#HipHopEd
the arts are not ‘an engaging way to teach the content that really matters.'
the arts are not 'a reward for students doing their real work.'
the arts help us (teachers/students/people) understand our own and each others’ humanness and humanity.
#HipHopEd#ArtsEd

Historically art has been deemed artistic by the aristocracy. It is important that as we explore #STEM as a means of artistic expression, we equally consider the gatekeepers of STEM curriculum and how #DigitalHumanites bridges various gaps #hiphoped
When teaching students to code, have them create their own end-result of the program. This way, they'll be motivated to learn the skills to realize the vision. #HipHopEd

#HipHopEd ‘s purpose is 2 argue for the recognition of HH as a culture & not simply an art form. This work moves beyond fun moments of rapping with youth & dives into the use of HH culture in classrooms and beyond. S/O to the homie @KingAdjapong for pushing this work heavy
What is viewed as Art today by the masses was often viewed as obscene and of no value in different economic classes. Respect the technique and cram to understand #HipHopEd
the definition that should matter to us is the one that is in reality and in people's lives, but always art will be in our essential creativity of being human beyond what he sells or not! Reveld creativity is in the heart of latinamerica #hiphoped
Tell your students about #CES, the biggest tech event in the world, where innovators showcase their new gadgets/prototypes. I went this year and was one of ~200 black people out of 70,000+ attendees. NEEDS TO CHANGE! #HipHopEd
I’m diggin tonight’s #hiphoped chat. Especially the convo about STEM and Arts integration. reminds me of another couple of my fav twitter chats:
#blkcreatives#DevDiscuss
big shout out to all gettin busy in these chats. I’m sitting back soaking up game. Thank you.
An interesting thing here in South Africa is that the arts are a large part of our "home life" but many struggle to see how it fits in "school life". How does one transform the resistance? #HipHopEd
As we explore the intersectionality #DigitalHumanites hip hop pedagogy seems to have found its niche by way of digital storytelling and working within existing platforms while establishing new platforms, developing new audiences #mediumisthemessage#HipHopEd
@chrisemdin With the vocabulary they want to hear, we work art and explain it through neuroscience since it is fashionable and therefore we occupy it and jaky it to the same system, we give it what they want, we do what children need #hiphoped ALWAYS!
Currently building a 90-minute presentation on "the past, present, and future of Hip-Hop" for a class of 6th graders - if you have any info, suggestions, and/or advice feel free to send it my way. Thanks in advance. #HipHopEd

My pre-service teachers are challenged to write math rap battles (battling math concepts) & create videos, then they get to compete in a showcase event #HipHopEd
For that same reason, freedom in the human being is so important since that non-definition will allow us for life to create the freedom that gives love and generates respect! #hiphoped

in the 1990s i got a Salada tea bag and on the little tag it said:
‘rap music = an oxymoron’
...those in power have an interest in devaluing art that renders their power illegitimate.

Are we allowing our students the space to be aware/free in their exploration of their gifts as we know the world wants to harness and exploit that raw creativity? #HipHopEd
