Supporting students with different first languagesHave you tried already any of the mentioned ideas? How did it work? Do you have any other concrete tips for your peers (e.g. giving students your written notes in advance)? And what strategies can we use that are not too time-consuming for us as teachers?

Multilingual  school is a great idea! In our classes we could create similar situation through parents and teachers' collaboration, organizing for exemple a meeting between a foreigner parent and students, watching a film about other country,  make a ended school party eating sweets from the world and dancing dances from the world maybe teach by the same parents...

Developing empathy and open-mindednessHow did you develop your own open-mindedness and empathy and how would you like to develop it further? How empathic and open-minded do you think your students are already? Can you use your own experiences in your classroom work? How would you adapt the "What is privilege" activity and what other activities can you think of that can develop open-mindedness and empathy.

I find the video a  very useful activity. It makes students reflect about "What is privilege". I would try it in a fifth class in primary school, leaving the approach basically how it is in the video. I would adapt it  making a circle time moment to share their opinions and emotions throught a brainstorming about the meaning of privilege, trying to explain it to the students of different cultures.
then you can ask them to draw this experience and at the end create a video like a simple spot entitled "My privilege".

Creating a sense of belonging and identity in your class and school

# data[].attributes.body
Do you feel your classes have something like a class identity, a feeling of belonging to a small community? If yes, how did you create this? What about your school? What actions at the level of your school exist that help community building? Do you have colleagues who are more sceptical about such activities when it comes to cultural diversity? How do you convince / deal with them?

I am a support teacher and I teach in two classes. Always I try to create a positive climate between students through dialogue, common passions, shared problems.
The atmosphere is friendly because all meet and play togheter after school. There are some pupils from different countries I’m trying to create cooperative learning situations and promote different laboratrial activities (dances from the world, gardening and planting, music competitions, ICT, theatre...)

Unfortunately, I didn't attend this webinar. I have only seen the video… Many thanks to Erika for her presentation!
I'll try to propose my pupils the activity "Drawing a Language Profile"
I agree perfectly to give importance to:
❖ Explain where the languages are situated in my body (what do the parts of the body mean for me?) ❖ Explain why we use which color (what do the colours been) ❖ Important: Give everyone enough time to explain his/her.
I like very much the word: Linquality: to be capable to express what I mean in a language and make others understand what I want to express ❖ without ❖ painful memories ❖ fear problems, conflicts, any danger ❖ feeling inferior, helpless.

share with us some general information about the students you teach. What are their cultural backgrounds? How are they diverse in other ways? Do you have a positive relationship with them? How do they interact with each other?
I teach in a Primary School  in the middle of Italy (Molise) In my classes there are 5 students from East Europe(Polland, Romania, Ucraina) China and Switzerland.
They speak a good italian.
There are even  some kids with behavioural problems for their familiar backgrounds. They interact with each other because they speak about themselves, their favourite activities during the afternoon (they meet in the center of the village and play togheter). Theachers try  to adopt particular strategies creating a collaboration  and a positive atmosphere, use ICT to engage and promote individual learning.

Recognising cultural diversity for learning in everiday practice
Open and reflective to accommodate and value the diversity

You are a reflective practitioner who is open to trying out new things to ensure the diversity of your students is valued and recognized in your teaching approaches. You make the learning process relevant to your students by adapting resources or providing examples that reflect the student’s experiences. You try to integrate cultural diversity as a topic in your teaching beyond prescribed moments in the curriculum.

Take a look at this table with the different answer options to see other ways how cultural diversity can be addressed in the classroom.

I'm agree with Erika and Alicia: empathy, acceptance of other people's ideas, the critical thinking, use of ICT,  playful and joyful teaching, the encouragement of dialogue between students. The diversity is useful, open the mind and offer educational challenges.

How to develop intercultural competence as a teacher?

Alicia Erika  say a lot of sharable ideas. first: start from themselves(Socrate teach"Gnose te ipsum")
second: accept others
as well as it is with its lights and its shadows.
third: reflect and make students understand all cultures are equal, not only the culture of the country where they live. I believe this is the most important task of multicultural teaching: to teach the students to know their cultural identity and at the same time to respect other students' cultures.

I live in a very small region (250.000 inhabitans) Even in the small villages there are a lot of students from many countries. It is very important that we teachers help our pupils to collaborate, to communicate, even in different languages,  to exchange cultures. In this way we can dream and promote a peaceful way to learn from each other and be able to create new cultural forms for their future  lives.

My school is a omnicomprehensive school  for pupils aged three to 18 years and  has about 2000 students on roll. It is a co-ed establishment. It's a very small detached building with 5 classes from first to fifth. In the lower floor there are children in kindergarten.  A building is over 35  years old  and my classroom hasn't seen much change since then. I have a PC in the class and a  whiteboards shared with other classes.
the digital whiteboard is in a computer lab where there are 6 PC. I bought myself a tablet and I use it with disabled pupils or for find material and try to listen songs
I use free apps with simple games for two disabled pupils

# data[].attributes.body
I work with pupils 10 years aged. They love PC games. I can
interest them and support their motivation to study. In our school we
have few PC and they must to work in pair or three. They learn to collaborate,
wait for their turn but we can not do a good work during the day. I want to use tablets because their technical versatility and their relatively low cost make them accessible  to  the  majority  of students. Through the BYOD every pupil can have his personal device. I
think that  they are very useful to improve digital literacy and communication.

The tablets are good because the students can learn by themselves, they can acces
to a wide range of information and tools and share it with their classmates. Besides,
their motivation increase when they use news technologies.

1.  Why do I want to use tablets? In other words what is the added benefit in general and more importantly what is the benefit for my own situation.

2.  What do I need to consider at a more broader, whole-school level when using tablets?

3.  What do I need to consider at a classroom level when using tablets?

So at the end of this module you should have achieved the following learning objectives:

1.  Reflected on the use of tablets in general as well as in your specific situation

2.  Explored a range of challenges of using tablets in schools

3.  Identified a key challenge for your school and suggested an idea how to address it

4.  Explored a range of challenges of using tablets in classrooms

5.  Identified a key challenge for your classroom and suggested an idea how to address it
