professor
Ball State University
Eva Zygmunt is a Distinguished Professor in the Department of Early Childhood, Youth, and Family Studies in Teachers College at Ball State University. For the past 14 years, and alongside colleagues and members of the community, she has been working to refine a model of community-engaged teacher preparation that elevates and privileges the wisdom and expertise of members of marginalized communities, and which aims to nurture future teachers’ skill and will to enact pedagogies that are culturally responsive and community sustaining. Eva’s belief in the authentic engagement of families and the community as imperative to education reform compels her aspirations for and actions toward a more socially just and equitable education for all children.
