EDUC-5040: Diversity and Equity

Students begin by constructing a critical and historical context for today’s issues of race, class and gender, then progress to an examination of culture and how it affects education and learning. The perspective of equity calls attention to recurring public policy, ethical and legal issues concerning access to schools, allocation of resources, social and cultural relationships, and educational outcomes. This exploration is associated with all social groups, especially those with less power, privilege, status and wealth. How students and teachers from diverse backgrounds can deal with cultural differences in the classroom is addressed.
