INTRODUCTION

• Valuing inclusion in the classroom can help to create a

more respectful learning environment for everyone.
Students can be taught as early as pre-school and
elementary school how to use accurate terms to
describe their own social identity.
MEANING

• Teaching to engage diversity, to include all learners, and

to seek equity is essential for preparing civically
engaged adults and for creating a campus and society
that recognizes the contributions of all people. Teaching
for diversity refers to acknowledging a range of
differences in the classroom.
OBJECTIVES

• Studies have shown that having diverse classrooms helps develop tolerance and a greater
sense of security when in environments with other foreign cultures present. It also helps
students learn about other languages and cultures, encouraging them to be interculturally
sensitive.
