Cultural diversity is an asset to any classroom or workplace. People with various backgrounds bring new perspectives, and as both students and teachers we need to be willing to learn from one another.
This is a great topic and I practice this everyday.
I learned to be aware of the diffence in cultures that my students may be coming from and be better at understanding these differences
Multicultural fluency is something I am challenged by at the moment. I have an individual in my program that cannot read, write or speak english. I do not have the resources available to me to properly train the individual. Safety is the overall concern.
Multicultural Environments create more diversity in the workplace to allow for different ideas and perspective to become part of culture and growth of a company. Best solutions will be made by a team when problems are looked at from an open mindset.
Diverse backgrounds builds and enables the synergy of a group or team. Understanding the people around you makes you more intuned to the needs and wants you can naviagte to produce productive outcomes.
I have learned that diveristy may go beyond ethnicity and include those with different abilities, or disabilities.
I need to be culturally aware of my students.
Learn to learn from everyone.
