It is important to be inclusive in the classroom setting as well as in clinicals and anywhere that life takes you honestly. Gender/racial bias still exists today unfortunately. We need to be apart of the change for the future and be sure that no one feels left out or excluded especially in a classroom setting. I am here to help my students be successful in every way possible and hope to never make them feel bad about themselves in any way, shape, or form.
This reinforces the importance of student centered learning where instructors get to know their students and include the prior knowledge and experiences of the students as part of the learning process. It is important to recognize unconscious bias, and be aware of it creeping into the classroom environment
The content of this module reinforced the importance of cultural awareness and highlighted the value of fostering a welcoming classroom environment that enables students to feel heard, encouraged, and respected.
Men being more hands on is a broad generalized statement that is not a universally true statement. Students shows that men no longer lean towards hands on learning. The learning styles of men and women differ with the personality not the gender.
Diversity is more than the differences in race, ethnicity, or culture. Diversity is about inclusion, respect and representation. As a teacher, we have to meet the student were they are. Student have different strengths, learning styles, and cultural backgrounds. We have to adapt our methods of teaching to use inclusive materials and create a conducive learning environment.
As a teacher, I will design lessons all student can relate to. Example, stories, and resources from different cultures and viewpoints will help to be inclusive. Making the classroom setting a safe space for all students better the chances of students learning to listen and learn from each others. Every student feeling seen and respected is my goal.
Recognizing that everyone has different perspectives, I plan to move forward by being more intentional about implementing inclusive practices in my classroom and workplace.
The content in this module built on what I learned in my Master's degree about every student having different learning types and how you should incorporate more than one way to teach something or assess a students learning. I also learned a lot about ESL students and being monolingual/bilingual and how to best help students who do not speak English as their "mother tongue" in classes.
To achieve optimal learning outcomes for each student, we must seek to understand each student, their background, and what may make learning this subject easy or difficult for them.
I have learned that all students should be treated as individuals, and not as a group. I will apply this knowledge in the classroom setting, making sure that I know every student by know, and get to know them as an individual.
I learned how race, culture, and language may help shape students' learning experiences. I found it especially valuable to explore the unique challenges faced by mono-, bilingual, and multilingual learners in a college setting. Being new to education, this helped highlight the importance of inclusive teaching practices that support students with different cultural experiences.
Being diverse/having diversity helps everyone. Generalizing and putting people of the same race/gender in the same categories not only disregards the individual as a person, it disregards everything about who they are, what they like and how they feel, and what interests they have as a person.
Very good quick lesson. Instant engagement.
Cultural diversity in school means including every student. This means we include and accept all students regardless of: gender, sexual orientation, religion, socioeconomic status, language, and/or abilities.
The benefits of embracing diversity in school include: enhanced learning, increased empathy, improved academic performace, and preparation for a diverse world.
Being aware of our own biases is important. Using varying strategies in the classroom will help include students with diverse learning needs.
As educators, we are around many different people from all race and culture, we have to be unbiased when teaching our students. We have to find different ways to get the information across for everyone to learn and understand.
It's important to understand the student at their world view, otherwise communication cannot happen.
Being mindful of cultural diversity will help create a welcoming academic environment for every student.
Fairly straight forward if you weren't raised as a total jerk. Be kind, be inclusive make the class a safe space
Importance of inclusive language
It is easy to think bias does not impact us in 2025. Gender bias is still wide spread in many professions. As a nurse I am happy to see more males in this profession but they are still very much in the minority.
