Discussion Prompt: Applying Multiculturalism

Now that you have had a chance to work through all of the different modules and topics in the course, I would like for you to consider how you can apply these ideas to your own discipline. So, select one single lesson or idea from your content area, and consider one way you can apply a multicultural education approach. Then, below, post your lesson and how you have made it multicultural. I look forward to reading your ideas!

One of the goals of culturally responsive teaching is to validate the cultures of students as you teach. They should see themselves in the curriculum. How would you feel if you never saw yourself, your family, or your community in the curriculum except in a negative way? What groups are seldom seen in textbooks? How could you incorporate the cultures of your students into the subject you plan to teach?
