Teaching students to appreciate and be exposed to different cultural backgrounds and experiences will help them in the corporate world and in their futures.
Students need the necessary skills to enter the real world. They should have respect and understanding of other places around the world and other cultures and backgrounds. By helping students understand what culturally sensitive is can better prepare them for their future and working with others different than themselves.
Being aware of the privilege that you bring to the classroom can help you see your students as they are and learn from all the different backgrounds and cultures your students have. Cultural diversity should be celebrated and viewed as a huge strength/asset in every classroom.
I often talk to my students about "reading the room" to equally match someone's personality. I'd like to further this discussion in the future to include discussing our cultural backgrounds and how it can affect the way in which we communicate and engage our clients.
Being aware of diversity within cultures is important.
A strong intent to appreciate another has value that breeds stronger relationships and encourages a healthy end result for everyone.
being unaware of/insensitive to sociocultural differentiation within your student population is an excellent way to reach very few kiddos.
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.
