Having a positive impact on students is what almost all teachers are committed to . They usually declare that: I want my students get into responsible citizens. I need my students to help society in an active, involved way. Or maybe, I want my pupils to change the world. But just how many teachers know how to make that happen? Can we explicitly instruct learners to change the world? Perhaps not, but we are able to teach the students about the examples of injustices not only in the world history but also in our current time . Exposing the students to these injustices, and also showing the way, they had been overcome could help to nurture responsible, active and world changing citizens. Traditionally, schools have been acting as operating system for social justice, providing a venue for exploring, emphasizing and reflecting on new and current opinions of scholars. In addition to referring to meaningful academic content, teachers should help students to develop critical thinking skills, holistic approach and self-reflection skills that can promote a promising society. If educational outcomes are supposed to generate students who are able to administer a better society, what are the means, and elements? It has been prove that students’ awareness about social issues are linked to their potential to develop efficient solutions to tackle injustice in their society. However, social justice isnt only about teaching right from wrong and raising awareness of social justice topics, it is also about action. Social justice education includes stimulating the moral and spiritual development of children and enc
ouraging them to learn how to respect differences between individuals, identify social injustices in the world around them, and take collaborative and effective action to address the social injustices. As the diversity in North America keeps rising, the necessity of bringing the issues of social justice into education will persist. Social justice issues related to race, gender, sexual orientation, and religion (to name just a few), have been at the top of political and media ideologies, and educating children on these topics are essential to enable them become active citizens. Issues of social justice dont present themselves in a single way, nor can interaction with them be learned through immediate education. It involves critical evaluation of self, others, and incidents to identify patterns of injustice , and then needs an investigation of possible ways to address the problems . Social justice activities attempt to develop a society where people have equal access to resources and receive equal care regardless of colour, gender, religion, orientation , income or disability (Hackman, 2005). The classroom for social studies are a proper setting for enabling a equality-focused teaching method, as productive social study instruction encourages open discussions, in which different views and experiences are expressed and reflectively examined. Putting theory into practice can be difficult for classroom teachers. However, following a model that creates a mindful climate, demonstrate validity, builds up critical thinking skills, and produces action plans can guide instruction into the desired direction.
