Overview

This popular book explores both theory and practice of multicultural education across multiple disciplines—at the elementary, middle school, and collegiate levels. It explains how to make teaching responsive to diverse populations that are changing the face of today's classrooms and campuses. Specific examples of curriculum, instruction, and assessment are used to exemplify contemporary approaches to teaching children and youth from multicultural backgrounds. The book is organized into four sections which address: offering a theoretical and historical overview of multiculturalism, creating multicultural and social reconstructionist environments, integrating theory and practices into each academic discipline, and helping prospective teachers to become proponents of multicultural teaching. An extensive number of examples in each area enables readers to draw upon many real experiences as shared by practitioners in the field. For practitioners of multicultural education, and other teaching professionals who have a multicultural awareness and want to provide support and mentoring to their peers.
