Bio: Dr. Dwayne Ray Cormier’s research focuses on bridging the sociocultural gap between PreK-12 educators and students from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds and urban and rural schooling contexts. His research has led to the development of the Cultural Proficiency Continuum Dialogic Protocol (CPCDP), a pedagogical tool designed to assess and codify individuals’ cultural competency. Currently, Dr. Cormier is working with the Hands-On Lab at Old Dominion University to adapt the CPCDP to a web-based platform to increase accessibility and broader impact.
