Beschreibung:
This volume will assist teachers in recognizing the increasing diversity of their students who often look very different from and have life and school experiences that are very different than those of the educators who serve them. Current and future educators must utilize relevant curricula and creative pedagogies that honor students' diverse cultures and school and community experiences, while respecting our highest ideals for educational equity and social justice.
