Description

This course examines how cultural diversity presents major opportunities and challenges in schools today. The course will focus on diversity consciousness and culturally responsive teaching in the context of an increasingly diverse school population. Students will be expected to relate concepts from the course to not only their own lives, but to current events in local, national, and international societies. Exploration of the North Dakota Native American Essential Understandings is included within the context of this course. The WIDA English Language Development Standards framework will be incorporated to address the needs of English Language Learners.
