Starting in April, Educator Innovator will host a dynamic opportunity for open learning via author partnerships, annotathons (more on these below!), and webinars\u2014all in conjunction with Marginal Syllabus, a multi-stakeholder collaboration between <a href=\"https:\/\/hypothes.is\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hypothesis<\/a>, a non-profit organization building an open platform for discussion on the web, Aurora Public Schools in Aurora, CO, and Researchers and teacher educators from the University of Colorado Denver School of Education and Human Development in Denver, CO. The founders of Marginal Syllabus aim to advance educator professional development about education in\/equity through the use of participatory learning technologies. You can learn more at the Marginal Syllabus <a href=\"http:\/\/marginalsyllab.us\/about\/\" target=\"_blank\">website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>By partnering with Marginal Syllabus, Educator Innovator seeks to facilitate open learning for educators in all kinds of spaces (in schools, libraries, and afterschool programs to name a few). We are enthusiastic about the potential for collaborative learning, exploration, and dialogue brought about by \u201csocial reading\u201d and the online tools like Hypothesis that make it possible. We already know there is tremendous power in reading, writing and discussing together, and this collaboration makes it even easier, extending the conversation across space and time.<\/p>\n<p>By now, we hope you\u2019re asking yourself how you can benefit from this partnership and participate yourself.

When applying the lens of equity to this chapter (which Marginal Syllabus takes up as a guiding principle), we imagine educators will be able to see clearly why exploring these issues with students from all backgrounds remains critical.<\/p>\n<h4>We\u2019ve outlined 3 easy steps for you to get involved, with more details about these events and instructions for how to jump in:<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Step 1: Learn More about Marginal Syllabus and Annotathons<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/marginalsyllab.us\/\" target=\"_blank\">Marginal Syllabus<\/a> is an informal educator professional learning effort that convenes monthly annotation conversations, or \u201cannotathons,\u201d about issues of educational equity. Marginal Syllabus organizers partner with authors and education experts whose scholarly perspectives may be considered marginal to dominant conventions of schooling and education. The openly accessible texts of partner authors \u2013 whether book chapters or blog posts \u2013 are selected as online forums for conversation among K-12 and postsecondary educators via the open educational practices of web annotation (conversations that occur in a text\u2019s margins). Both the individual texts where monthly dialogue occurs \u2013 and the syllabus as a cohesive, growing document \u2013 represent a dynamic conversation that seeks to open texts as contexts for educators\u2019 interest-driven learning. For even more context, you can read a recent blog post by Marginal Syllabus co-founder, Remi Kalir, about upcoming events and the Educator Innovator partnership <a href=\"http:\/\/marginalsyllab.us\/info-updates\/marginal-syllabus-announces-new-conversation-format-and-partnership\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2: Get Started with Hypothes.is<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Getting started with Hypothes.is is as easy as clicking on this activated link to the chapter to jump in:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/via.hypothes.is\/https:\/\/educatorinnovator.org\/between-storytelling-and-surveillance-the-precarious-public-of-american-muslim-youth\/\">Storytelling and Surveillance: The Precarious Public of American Muslim Youth<\/a>.
