Learning Journey

Learning Journey timeline EDU230 Cultural Diversity in Education Mesa Community College 


                 What is culture and what are some major aspects of culture?
           
               Culture is the customs, arts, and attitudes of a person in the way of how they live their lives. Their beliefs and values influence their ways of life(culture).  



                                              Here is a funny one




What is multicultural education?  What are the goals of multicultural education?

                Multicultural education is the idea of teaching different perspectives and other cultures in order to promote diversity. 



                                                       Quote




       How does multicultural education reflect responsive teaching to help meet the academic needs of diverse student populations?

                                 It showcases other cultures and teaches the diverseness of the world to students. It encourages other cultures to be taught and explored to where other students can be comfortable and want to learn more about other cultures. 


                                                                               
How can multicultural education affect broader social issues that impact our society? (e.g. intercultural communication/relations, prejudice, stereotypes, crime & poverty rates, achievement gaps, etc.)
      It affects Social Issues by putting a focus on these issues and teaching about what can be done to stop crime, poverty, stereotypes, etc. By learning this people can become in a way "Working class Hero's"
Hence this song (which is clean BTW, originally by the great John Lennon this is a cover that Green Day did)
                      
I thought this was an interesting and creative picture
  • What other significant insight(s) have you gained and how will this insight impact your personal/professional life?
    
              There are so many different cultures out there and you begin to realize that your everyday life may consists of multiple cultures that you have been influenced by and adopted. It impacts my personal and professional life by wanting to hear stories of other cultures and learn what other peoples cultures are like.
