Comprehensive Multicultural Education: Theory and Practice - Tapa blanda

This title provides the historical background, basic terminology, and social science concepts involved in multicultural education that teachers need before they enter the field. A curriculum model with six goals is provided, with many lesson plans showing how each goal can be implemented in the classroom. Both theory and practice in the text present interdisciplinary content through primary source material and vignettes of actual teachers and students, and encourage interactions between students' cultural and individual differences. Bennett aims to foster the idea that understanding and valuing students' individual differences allows teachers to encourage each student to reach his or her fullest potential.
