Cultural Diversity: Including Every Student --> The Diversity in "Diverse"
Post what you've learned about this topic and how you intend to apply it. Feel free to post questions and comments too.
This helps with understanding how to apply diversity as a faculty member.
This course helped solidify my understanding of multisensory instruction along with learning. Including multisensory instruction is an evidence-based practice that supports the success of student learning.
Learning to be able to reach through different Methods will create a better learning and teaching environment for both teacher and student
This module helped me understand that diversity includes many different lived experiences and identities, that stereotypes can negatively affect learning and belonging, and that creating an inlcusice, equitable classroom means recognizing and supporting unique needs of every student.
Knowing and understanding the point of view each student sees the world through is key to avoiding stereotyping and limiting their learning.
Each student brings their own lens through which they are filtering the material, and we must endeavour to understand their lens.
Being able to reach individual students through different methods keeping each individual student in mind will help to create a good learning environment.
Take time to learn how students prefer to learn. Paying special attention to how I interact and speak with students will help with effective communication and prevent barriers to learning.
Treat students with dignity, avoiding stereotypes and creating a safe learning environment for all students.
Never make assumptions about a student based on their gender. And students have different learning methods.
Respect each student's differences and don't make assumptions. Learning styles are different for each person
Every student has different life and educational experiences that will influence them, I should not assume students are at the same.
I learned to not assume everyone is the same
Everyone is different and thus, the way different people will learn will vary.
That you can not assume everyone is alike. Everyone is different
Each individual is unique
Treat everyone with respect
This has solidified that every student has a different background and method of learning, and being a considerate teacher means realizing this and accommodating to each student's needs
By focusing on each student as an individual, the entire group will ultimately succeed. I intend to use this principle while prepping for instruction and selecting supplemental material.
