This 25th commemorative volume consists of engaging, incisive, and timely selections from the best-selling and most influential books in the Series. The selections describe ways in which multicultural education should be reimagined in a nation and world that are becoming increasingly complex because of continuing immigration, race is becoming more fluid and complex due to interracial mixing and border crossing, and because social-class stratification is intensifying and becoming more salient because of the pandemic"--

Any type of education or teaching that combines the values, histories, beliefs, texts and viewpoints of persons belonging to different cultural backgrounds is referred to as multicultural education. It is a method of teaching that is based on certain principles, which include diversity, inquiry, inclusion, self-reflection, democracy, skill acquisition and critical thinking. Education policy consists of the collection of laws and rules that govern the operation of educational systems. The aim of multicultural education is to ensure that all students irrespective of their gender, social class, ethnicity, race or culture should be given equal opportunity to learn in schools. Transformation of multicultural education aims to introduce the necessary changes to ensure that it caters to the present and future goals of multicultural education. The complexity of the educational transformation process to acquire intercultural attributes is determined by the promotion of educational policies for cultural diversity. This book studies and analyses the transformation of multicultural education policy and practice. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language, and extensive use of examples make it an invaluable source of knowledge.

Critical Multicultural Education written by Christine E. Sleeter and has been published by Teachers College Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2024 with Education categories.
This volume collects Christine Sleeter’s core work focusing on critical multicultural education, situating culture and identity within an analysis of power and racism. Multicultural education arose in the context of the Civil Rights Movement and, in its inception, shared with that movement a focus on eradicating both interpersonal and systemic racism. The problem this book takes up is that, over time, many people have come to understand and enact multicultural education in ways that evade grappling directly with racism. This dilution has happened for several reasons, including White teachers’ rearticulations of multicultural education as “getting along” or learning to be colorblind and neoliberal reforms that have reduced it to a celebration of cultural diversity while maintaining silence about racism. This volume includes ten of SleeterÕs articles that explicitly locate multicultural education within critical understandings of race, racism, and colonialism, offering both theoretical and practical discussions of what that means. “A deeply researched, contextualized, and nuanced account of multicultural education.” —H. Richard Milner IV, Vanderbilt University “This beautiful and intersectional volume needs to be required reading in every school of education.” —Robin DiAngelo, coauthor of Is Everyone Really Equal? “This book is an important intervention on the side of racial justice in education” —Wayne Au, editor, Rethinking Schools

This second edition is essential reading for educators and other school community members who are navigating the increasingly complicated laws and legal rulings related to LGBTQ students, employees, and community members. It combines historical, contemporary, theoretical, and practical information to help educators address exclusionary practices in schools related to gender identity, sexuality, racism, sexism, and other forms of bias that shape student experiences. To enable educators to better understand their obligations to students in relation to policy, staff training, daily school climate, pedagogy, and curriculum, the author has extensively revised this popular text to include updated information on the impact of same-sex marriage legalization and increasing federal recognition of transgender student rights. And because the legal terrain regarding transgender youth has been especially volatile, Mayo provides strategies that educators can use to maintain ethical trans-inclusive teaching, even when local regulations appear to impede transgender inclusivity. Book Features: An examination of the pedagogical, curricular, and policy changes that can improve school experiences for LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer or questioning) and ally students. A new chapter on gender identity and transgender, nonbinary, and gender expansive student experiences. Current policy and legal information, data, and justification for LGBTQ-equitable and inclusive teaching.

“TIPM and the storywork in this book are determining the kind of lives we aim to lead and will lead as Indigenous peoples.” —From the Foreword by Tiffany Lee, University of New Mexico This book presents the Transformational Indigenous Praxis Model (TIPM), an innovative framework for promoting critical consciousness toward decolonization efforts among educators. The TIPM challenges readers to examine how even the most well intended educators are complicit in reproducing ethnic stereotypes, racist actions, deficit-based ideology, and recolonization. Drawing from decades of collaboration with teachers and school leaders serving Indigenous children and communities, this volume will help educators better support the development of their students’ critical thinking skills. Representing a holistic balance, the text is organized in four sections: Birth–Grade 12 and Community Education, Teacher Education, Higher Education, and Educational Leadership. Unsettling Settler-Colonial Education centers the needs of teachers, children, families, and communities that are currently engaged in public education and who deserve an improved experience today, while also committing to more positive Indigenous futurities.

This book addresses a problem that affects the work of all educators: how traditional methods of assessment undermine the capacity of schools to serve students with diverse cultural and social backgrounds and identities. Anchored in a commonsense notion of validity, this book explains how current K-12 assessment practices are grounded in the language, experiences, and values of the dominant White culture. It presents a timely review of research on bias in classroom and large-scale assessments, as well as research on how students' level of engagement influences their performances. The author recommends practices that can improve the validity of students' assessment performances by minimizing sources of bias, using culturally responsive assessment tools, and adopting strategies likely to increase students' engagement with assessment tasks. This practical resource provides subject-specific approaches for improving the cultural and social relevance of assessment tools and offers guidance for evaluating existing assessment instruments for bias, language complexity, and accessibility issues. Book Features: Research-based recommendations for improving assessment fairness, validity, and cultural/social relevance. Practices that have been shown to improve the effectiveness of classroom assessments in supporting student learning. Concrete examples of how to create culturally relevant assessment tasks that target valued learning goals in language arts, mathematics, social studies, and science classrooms. Appendixes that provide tools educators can use to improve grading practices.

Race matters in the lives of youth. A new set of politicized, strategic, and public assaults on the teaching of race or other “divisive” concepts in school have had a chilling effect in classrooms across the nation. This poses a threat to students’ right to learn in educational spaces that are accountable for supporting all young people with equity and affirmation. Drawing upon the voices of adolescents in four middle schools, Making the Case for Race in Middle School: Supporting Adolescents and Teachers in Critical Racial Consciousness and Advocacy advances the argument that providing youth with the space and opportunity to think critically about the pervasive dynamics of race in society, and in their own lives, is not partisan, but an essential element of being a teacher in a multiracial democracy. The academic literature on critical multiculturalism, ethnic-racial identity, and anti-racist pedagogy is brought together to provide theoretical and practical direction for educators, with a particular focus on reflective praxis among White classroom teachers. This book is a celebration of the agency of teachers who are committed to supporting students in their racial consciousness and potential for social justice advocacy during early adolescence, when they are unabashedly open, curious, and hopeful in their desire for a better, more inclusive world.

This concise and compelling book outlines the key civil rights conditions that are essential to deeper learning—the skills and knowledge that students need to succeed in 21st-century jobs and life. It describes schools that enable young people, including those traditionally furthest from opportunity, to develop into caring and critical problem solvers, effective communicators, collaborators, and scholars. The book also describes the community and school inequities that have created persistent obstacles to these goals and the civil rights actions that have been and continue to be needed to remove them. These include policies and practices that ensure safe and healthy communities, equitable investments in public schools, supports for competent teachers, strategies for welcoming and nurturing school climates, and innovative curricula. The authors examine the civil-rights-based pathways that lead to these goals, highlighting examples of exemplary schools that offer the kind of deeper learning that engages and empowers students. This successor to Linda Darling-Hammond’s Grawemeyer Award–winner, The Flat World and Education, is a big-picture view of what constitutes deeper learning—where it is found and what enables it—and what must be done to address the learning needs of all children. Book Features: Offers a concise treatment written in a voice that will be accessible to a wide range of readers.Pulls together three key strands of the learning needs of children (civil rights, educational opportunity, and deeper learning), the distinct inequalities in their delivery, past efforts, and legal and educational paths forward.Examines neighborhood and environmental inequities that can compromise learning, along with inadequate school funding and segregation.Looks at the professional teaching quality imbalance between rich and poor districts and the inferior curriculum offerings for marginalized populations. Includes numerous examples of schools that succeed at deeper learning and equity and explains how they do so.

Achieving Equal Educational Opportunity For Students Of Color written by Richard R. Valencia and has been published by Teachers College Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on with Education categories.
Valencia presents the mostÊcomprehensive, theory-based analysis to date on how societyÊandÊschools are structurally organized and maintained toÊimpedeÊthe optimal academicÊachievement of low-SES, marginalized K–12 Black and Latino/Latina students—comparedÊto theirÊprivileged WhiteÊcounterparts. TheÊbook interrogates how society contributes to educational inequality as seen in racializedÊpatterns in income, wealth, housing, and health, andÊhow public schools create significantÊobstacles for students ofÊcolor as observed in reduced access toÊopportunities (e.g., little access toÊhigh-status curricula knowledge). ÊValenciaÊoffers suggestions for achievingÊequal education (e.g., implementing fairness of school funding,ÊimprovingÊteacher quality, and providingÊstudents of color access to multicultural education) by disrupting structural racism.ÊConsidering the rapid aging of the WhiteÊpopulation and the sharp decline of WhiteÊyouth—coupledÊwith theÊexplosive growth in people ofÊcolor—this book argues that theÊ“AmericanÊImperative” must be toÊassiduouslyÊmount an effort to provide an excellent education forÊstudents ofÊcolor, who the nation will depend on for a sizable proportion of its work force. Book Features:Examines how society and schools are failing Black and Latino/Latina students, principally Mexican Americans who are by far the largest Latino/Latina group.Uses theoretical frameworks that draw from analysis of structural inequality, critical race theory, anti-deficit thinking narratives, class-by-race covariation, and an asset-based perspective of students of color. Discusses the “American Imperative” and the personal and economic consequences of not investing in students of color.
