Book Multicultural Education in a Pluralistic Society   Myeducationlab   Teaching Strategies for Ethnic Studies

Download or read book Multicultural Education in a Pluralistic Society Myeducationlab Teaching Strategies for Ethnic Studies written by Gollnick and published by Pearson College Division. This book was released on 2008-04-29 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This respected text for courses in Multicultural or Multiethnic Education provides students the tools necessary to teach effectively in today's diverse classrooms. "Pluralistic" is defined as having multiple aspects or parts. The classroom of today has students from multiple backgrounds, cultures, and races. Within those differing groups students have their own individual differences. Their home situations may be very different. They may be from a different social class. Each teacher also comes to the classroom with their own cultural background and past experiences that will effect how they will handle different situations. The goal of this book is to help students to apply what they have learned and in turn to prepare their students to live in our heterogeneous culture. Eight micro-cultures that teachers may encounter in the classroom are examined in detail: They are: - Ethnicity and race- Class and socioeconomic status- Gender and sexual orientation- Exceptionality- Language- Religion- Geography- Age Some of the features of the book are the "ABC News Video Insights" boxes that explore current issues in multicultural education today, "Focus Your Cultural Lens Debates" that ask the reader to take a position on controversial school issues with for and against statements to consider, and the "Pause to Reflect" feature which lists questions and activities to promote self-awareness and ownership of past experiences and how they may affect a teacher in the classroom. The "Critical Incidents" feature gives both real and hypothetical situations that occur in schools and encourage the reader to examine their feelings about them.

Book Empowerment through Multicultural Education

Download or read book Empowerment through Multicultural Education written by Christine E. Sleeter and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reframes questions about student diversity by probing the extent to which society serves the interests of all, and by examining the empowerment of members of oppressed groups to direct social change. It examines the empowerment of children who are members of oppressed racial groups, lower class, and female, based on the ideas of multicultural education. A series of ethnographic studies illustrates how such young people view their world, their power to affect it in their own interests, and their response to what is usually a growing sense of powerlessness as they mature. The authors also conceptualize contributions of multicultural education to empowering young people, and report investigations of multicultural education projects educators have used for student empowerment. Issues in teacher education are also discussed.
