EDUC 3363 - Reaching and Teaching Diverse Learner
Credits: 3
From a social sciences angle, this course is designed to provide students with an understanding of multiple perspectives in a global society. Students will be provided with disciplined inquiry and critical experiences to be more responsive to the human condition. An emphasis will be placed on the transformation of the students and their attitudes toward diversity, encouraging them to move beyond a tacit acceptance of differences to the recognition of diversity’s power and value and search within to examine their own diversity story. Students will examine and challenge their own personal biases, leading them into a deeper understanding of cultural sensitivity and inspiring them to work toward social justice. A companion focus will be on developing multiple modality, culturally aware curriculum experiences by differentiating instruction to create a transformative multicultural learning environment. Students will analyze the issues related to differentiation and apply the methodologies in coursework designed to assist teachers in creating a learning environment that addresses the diversity typical of today’s classrooms.
