Multicultural Teaching and Learning

What's New?

Sheets, Rosa Hernandez. "What Is Diversity Pedagogy?" /Multicultural Education/ 16.3 (Spring 2009): 11-17

Diversity Pedagogy Theory (DPT) builds an analysis of teaching and learning based on the connections between culture and cognition, offering teachers a pedagogical strategy for building courses and class sessions from an understanding of the critical role culture plays in teaching and learning, and from understanding how to design/adapt instruction for students in specific courses. DPT aims for course design that combines rigor with understanding for more learning by more students.
