Teaching to Difference? The Challenges and Opportunities of
Diversity in the Classroom offers a comparative perspective on the
pedagogical and cultural issues in managing differences and
diversity in the classroom. Using reflections and experiential
analysis, the volume presents perspectives on the experiences of
teaching and learning through differences of race/ethnicity,
culture, sexual orientation and gender, language, special needs and
geography, from contexts such as the United States, Canada, New
Zealand and Israel. The reflections are presented from the
viewpoint of minority teaching professionals and white educators
teaching diverse student populations ranging from K-12 to college
students and pre-service teachers.This volume provides a lens into
the questions, reflections, and experiences of teachers and
practitioners when they encounter difference in the classroom. The
essays highlight the trepidation and frustration educators feel
when they perceive themselves to be ill-prepared for diversity in
their classrooms. However, there are also essays of triumph and
success when teachers feel they have reached their students in a
meaningful way. Additionally, through the experiences depicted,
teachers describe their processes of connecting to students, how
they determined what worked and did not work in their journey, and
what they learned from the experience that continues to impact
them.
