Remember that race and culture are equally important. Race is a social construct and cultures refers to how we all behave.
I think there is a great deal of truth expressed in this course, that recognizing each student's individuality, as much as possible, within their own cultural backgrounds is the clearest road to actually creating a true learning community within the class.
We must acknowledge that everyone comes from a unique culture, race cannot be determined visually.
Race and culture must not be used to divide, but to recognize the diversity in every student.
Color-blindness fails to recognize differences between culture and race. Differences must be recognized and acknowledged
Culture vs. Race: Culture is the characteristics and knowledge of a particular group of people which encompasses many things including language, religion, food, cultural norms, and the arts. The module suggests 5 competencies to keep in mind to be culturally responsive as a teacher and for learners which include reflection, respect, accommodating learners when needed, intercultural communication, and structure.
Race is the grouping of people by their ethnicity and is a social construct that does not take into account an individual's full experience and background. It is important to create an inclusive classroom environment and be thoughtful about strategies to promote inclusivity.
Every class you will different cultures and race and adapting our teaching and communication methods to ensure that they are as inclusive as possible.
Sometimes a student enters the classroom with language barriers that need to be addressed so they may be successful in speaking and writing
Effective education must consider both cultural diversity and racial equity to ensure that all students have access to high-quality learning experiences and opportunities for success.
The idea of "Race" is antiquated in today's society. A person is defined by who they are, and what they have experienced, not what they look like. Getting to know your students for who they are as individuals can help you reach those students where they are.
Learning and respect different cultures are important to understand every student and help the teaching and learning process more effectively.
It is important that instructors set an example in including each student in a respectful way so that students will have a comfortable learning environment.
A race while it can mean a particular group of people, is an event to find a winner. We should still be aware of race in the classroom and be careful with what we say and how we say it.
Culture needs to be understood. Everyone is different and we need to embrace and learn from each other. It is amazing what you can learn when you genuinely converse with someone of a different "culture".
It is important for instructors to be aware of differences and how certain descriptors have been assigned by society. This is so that instructors can include every student.
Culture and Race are important, and you should include every student and engage every student in interaction and application. The outcome will be enriched and reflective of all student participation.
Culture vs Race is a false dichotomy that can create division in perception when addressing the needs of a student. An awareness of both culture and race allows teachers to be cognizant of their audience. But it is not a culture versus race argument but a culture AND race awareness.
It is important to identify the students as individuals, understand their cultural experiences and adapt the education program so that everyone can feel included and supported in learning. this inclusion and support comes not only from the educator, but also the student peers as well
Intercultural communication considers each student holistically, integrating their unique experiences into the curriculum. The essential approach is to familiarize oneself with and involve every student.
I encourage different cultures and experiences in my classes. I find that different perspectives can be very helpful for different learning.
Cultural diversity is the existence of various cultural or ethnic groups within a society. This includes language, religion, traditions, customs, and values differences. The classroom is often a melting pot of various cultures, each contributing its unique perspective and enriching the learning environment. Race is a social construct that categorizes people into groups based on physical traits, ancestry, genetics, or social relations. Race may encompass a variety of cultures, each with its unique characteristics. It's important to note that recognizing diversity within racial groups is as important as acknowledging the differences between them.
