Course description
Teachers serve classrooms filled with culturally and linguistically diverse students. An individual's culture and background are critically important to their experiences and outcomes as learners. It is therefore essential for educators to engage in teaching practices that are grounded in a dedication to cultural literacy, and a celebration for diversity. Creating a culture of empathy, equity, and belonging in the classroom begins with the ability to recognize and implement key features of a culturally responsive environment. Learners will leave this course with a wide breadth of knowledge surrounding diversity, and cultural inclusion, and responsiveness in a classroom environment.
