Top Resources to Teach About Cultural Diversity In The Classroom




Mr. / Girgis

Teaching Culture - Calico Spanish



Countries and Nations:


Learning about a foreign language is not enough to know


 about other peoples and other countries.


 It is very important to know about the culture, values,


 customs, traditions, ways of thinking and the ways of


living of the people whose language you are studying


about. Knowing about cultures facilitate the mutual


understanding among peoples.  Mutual understanding


creates good ties and relations on the standard of


individuals, peoples and countries.


Good relations lead to solving problems, ending wars


 and spreading love, tolerance, peace and happiness


all over the world.

Importance of Diversity & Cultural Awareness


 in the Classroom


In our increasingly diverse and multicultural society,

 it’s more important than ever for teachers to incorporate

culturally responsive instruction in the classroom --

whether teaching elementary school, middle school or

 high school students.



And the increase of diversity doesn’t only relate to race

 and ethnicity; it can include students of different religion,

economic status, sexual orientation, gender identity,

and language background.

Learning and Learners:


If a classroom teacher is to facilitate successful learning


opportunities for all learners, he or she must “know” the


learner.


This includes knowing about innate personality traits we


call “style” and also learned cultural values that affect


behavior.



The learner, of any age, is a product of nature and


nurture.We each are born with predispositions for


 learning in certain ways.


We also are products of external influences, especially


within our immediate family, extended community, and


culture.


Researchers confirm that learning patterns are a function


of both nature and nurture

Why is it Important to Encourage


 Diversity in Schools ?



Fostering inclusion and awareness around multicultural


 education and taking a culturally responsive approach


 to teaching benefits all students.



 Not only does creating greater multicultural awareness


and inclusion help students with different backgrounds


and needs succeed, but it encourages acceptance and


helps prepare students to thrive in an exponentially


 diverse world.



Diversity in and out of the classroom will continue


 to grow, so it’s essential we prepare students to


 adapt to an evolving world and embrace those


 different from themselves.

How do you Manage Diversity in


 the Classroom?



There are several ways teachers and administrators,


such as principals and coaches, can ensure that both


the classroom environment and curriculum are


 responsive to the increasing cultural diversity of our


society.


These strategies will encourage all students’ cultural


awareness, enhancing each student’s sense of identity,


 and foster inclusion in the classroom community.


Do you know what independent learning is?


Get to Know Your Students


Ensuring that cultural awareness is promoted in the

 classroom starts with the teacher understanding each

 individual student. Take the time to learn about each

 student’s cultural background, hobbies, learning styles,

 and what makes them unique.



Demonstrating a genuine interest in learning about each

 student and their culture will help establish trust and

allow you to form a bond with them so they feel valued.



If students feel appreciated by and comfortable with the

 teacher, there’s a better chance they’ll feel comfortable

 talking with and respect their peers in the class – and

communication is the core to a culturally aware and

 inclusive classroom.





Maintain Consistent Communication


Aside from getting to know your students, teachers

should also continue to maintain ongoing communication

 throughout the semester or school year.

 Scheduling 1-on-1 meetings with students to “check in”

every so often will allow you to consistently improve

how accessible the classroom is to everyone.

Students can talk about whether they felt included in

the classroom culture.




Acknowledge and Respect Every Student


It’s also important for students to celebrate and

respect their own diverse backgrounds, as well as

each other’s. When appropriate, teachers should

encourage students to research and learn about their

 own ethnic and cultural backgrounds. This allows them

 to better understand their own culture as well as the

differences and nuances with their peers.




As a bonus, this can be a great ice breaker assignment,

allowing students to give presentations about their family

traditions and culture to help expose the class to

concepts outside of their own familiar comfort zone.

Acknowledging these differences and creating a safe

 space for discussion helps promote understanding in

the classroom and beyond. 




Also, as you encourage students to learn about their

 diverse backgrounds, remember to take the time to

highlight what’s offensive and the distinction between

cultural celebration and appropriation. Learning how to

 talk about other cultures in a respectful, mature way is

 essential for success in life outside the classroom.




Practice Cultural Sensitivity


While it’s important to keep an open dialogue amongst

 students, it’s equally as important to make sure you’re

 being sensitive to everyone’s culture, beliefs, and

language concerns. Take the time to understand each

 student’s cultural nuances – from learning styles to the

 language they use – and use these insights to design

 your lesson plans.




For example, provide English language learners with

appropriate and relevant resources that help them

 improve their English comprehension skills.

Rather than teach with a traditional lecture style,

create learning experiences that are more interactive

 and require collaboration.

Incorporate Diversity in the Lesson Plan


The classroom environment is important for fostering

cultural awareness, but you also should ensure diversity

 is represented in your actual lesson plan.

For example, broaden history lessons so that they

encompass the world beyond United States history

and culture. Or, use references and analogies to other

cultures in your lessons and assignments to help

students with diverse backgrounds personally connect.




Another great strategy is bringing in diverse speakers

to add varying points of view and real-life context to

 different subjects.There are several ways you can

ingrain cultural awareness and diversity into your lesson

 plan, and it will vary depending on the cultures

represented in your classroom and the course

you’re teaching.



Regardless of the subject, always try to present and

connect lessons to real-world issues. It’s easier to

promote cultural awareness within your lessons when

 there’s a real example for students to relate to.





Give Students Freedom and Flexibility


Teachers often feel like they need to take on a strict,

 authoritative approach when it comes to managing

 their classroom. The most valuable lessons are often

learned through a student’s own experiences, so giving

 them some freedom in the course encourages more

connection to the curriculum.




Allow students to read and present their own materials

 that relate to the fundamental lesson so they can

approach the topic from their own perspective.

As a teacher, you can act as a facilitator and encourage

 conversation and healthy debate between diverse

opinions.




Group assignments are also a great way to expose

 students to diverse perspectives, allowing them to

work together to explore and solve a problem.

 This will also help prepare them for a diverse workforce

 where they’ll have to partner with a range of people to

accomplish their professional goals.

Why is it Important to Teach Culture in the


Classroom?




It is important to remind ourselves why diversity


 and cultural awareness is so crucial in the classroom


and the benefits it can have on students now and in


the long-term.



Teaching diversity exposes students to various cultural


 and social groups, preparing students to become better


citizens in their communities. These culturally responsive


 teaching strategies will help you to promote diversity


 in the classroom.


Establishing a Culture of Collaborative Learning


Students Become More Empathetic



Promoting awareness and creating a personal connection


 with diverse cultures in the classroom can prevent


students from developing prejudices later in life.


It allows them to empathize with people different


from themselves since they’re more aware of the


experiences someone of a different race or cultural


 group may face.




Students Gain a Better Understanding



of Lessons and People




When working and learning with people from a variety


of backgrounds and cultures present in the classroom,


students gain a more comprehensive understanding of


 the subject matter. It also teaches students how to use


their own strengths and points of view to contribute in a


diverse working environment.




Students Become More Open-Minded



Naturally, by exposing students to a diverse range


 of opinions, thoughts, and cultural backgrounds,


you’re encouraging them to be more open-minded


 later in life. This will make them open to new ideas


and be able to attain a greater comprehension on a


 topic by taking in different points of view.

Students Feel More Confident and Safe



Students who learn about different cultures during their


 education feel more comfortable and safe with these


 differences later in life. This allows them to interact in


a wider range of social groups and feel more confident


 in themselves as well as in their interactions with others.





Students Are Better Prepared for



 a Diverse Workplace



With the rise of globalization, it’s more important to be able


 to work with people from different cultures and social


groups.If students are exposed to diversity and learn


cultural awareness in the classroom, it sets them up to


flourish in the workforce.
