Comprehensive Coverage of Diversity. The text examines multiple forms of diversity including cultural, racial, gender, religious, social class and status, sexual orientation, the ability/disability continuum, etc. in order to provide students will a full understanding of their future students’ diversities.
Inclusive Approach. Human Diversity in Education applies “multicultural” to all students – not justminority groups.
Pedagogical System. A pedagogical system has been implemented including a chapter outline, objectives, bolded key terms, marginal Web links, an Online Learning Center chapter review, summary, reflection questions, and active exercises.
Focus on Individuals. Rather than focusing on groups, the authors have chosen to focus on intercultural interactions between individuals. There may very well be more diversity within a group than between groups, and students should come to realize that diversity acts on many levels, even within homogeneous groups.
