Talking Diversity with Teachers and Teacher Educators

Exercises and Critical Conversations Across the Curriculum

240 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Featuring content-specific strategies, assignments, and classroom activities, this book provides strategies to help pre- and in-service teachers develop the dispositions and knowledge they need to teach all students well. Focusing on the importance of creating a classroom community in which necessarily difficult dialogues are inspired and supported, the authors present content-area chapters on language arts, social studies, mathematics, science, ESOL, foreign language, and teaching exceptional students in the inclusive environment. Each content-area chapter includes a vignette illustrating a difficult conversation dealing with diversity and presents research-based, classroom-ready exercises, effective pedagogic strategies, and action-oriented interventions - many of which the authors created and used in their own classrooms. The book concludes with an appendix of instructional and curricular resources.
