دانلود کتاب Diversity Training for Classroom Teaching: A Manual for Students and Educators

توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب به زبان اصلی :

As America’s classrooms become more demographically diverse, educators must learn how to respond to the different needs and cultural styles of children who represent such diversity. Diversity Training for Classroom Teaching is a resource guide geared to help educators create classroom communities that respond to diversity. The learning activities presented in this volume define terminology, provide activities to raise self-awareness, include newspaper articles that illustrate the relevance of concepts, and allow for an overall dialogue about diverse issues.

This book encourages readers to generate their own construction of effective multicultural education and learn how to adapt it across various student populations and educational problems. At the same time, learning activities encourage readers to respect and seek to understand the experiences and worldviews of different people and how these diverse realities influence what is meant by multicultural education.

"Diversity Training for Classroom Teaching, by Caroline Clauss-Ehlers is a well constructed comprehensive guide through the maze of "cultural competence," racism, and many other aspects of diversity in our society.
The book is easy to use with many clear and well thought out exercises that will be valuable to both the teachers and their students. Additional web notes, references, and bibliographies for every chapter enhance the book so it is both a text and a training manual."
