Event Title:
2025 Biber Convocation featuring Nawal Qarooni | Building Nourishing Collaborations: Exalting Our Children and Their Caregivers
Description:
The Barbara Biber Convocation is an annual event that serves as the centerpiece of the Bank Street Graduate School of Education orientation and a welcome for incoming graduate students. The event provides an opportunity for the College community to engage with seminal thinkers on leading issues in education. The esteemed lecture honors the contributions Barbara Biber to both Bank Street and the wider educational community. Dr. Biber was a central figure shaping the institution that evolved from the Bureau of Educational Experiments to become Bank Street College. A keen observer of children and classrooms who immersed herself in the phenomena of children’s and teachers’ lives, her writings achieved a rare depth of insight and conceptual elegance. As a researcher and scholar, she continuously reexamined and refined her thinking. This lecture memorializes her progressive legacy.
