Recognizing that teachers are human beings who bring their own
experiences regarding race, language, gender, socioeconomic status,
family structure, sexual orientation, political ideology, and more
to the classroom, Exploring Diversity in Education challenges
future educators to look inward and engage in self-reflection to
better understand their own personal beliefs and identities.
Equipped with this information, readers can begin to locate their
blind spots and biases, nuances that can affect their teaching and
interactions with students. The text helps readers develop greater
cultural and self-awareness so they can competently work in schools
and communities with evolving demographics. The text is divided
into 10 chapters, which feature an introduction, an engaging
reading on a specific topic, and For Your Consideration section
that provides readers with thought-provoking questions and
reflection opportunities. Opening chapters discuss how knowing
oneself can help them know others, the dynamics of privilege, the
impact of poverty on learning and education, and religious
diversity in schools. Additional readings address linguistically
diverse learning, policies and practices that impact immigrant
students, and issues related to gender and racial hierarchy. The
final chapters explore what multicultural education looks like in
action and the importance of incorporating social justice in
curriculum. Designed to prepare the teachers of today and tomorrow
connect in meaningful ways with their students, Exploring Diversity
in Education is an essential text for courses and programs in
teacher education.
