In the school where I work there isn't an open public space for debate the problems that come by diversity. It is very difficult for the teacher to promote a meeting with students to improve their reciprocamente knowledge. I hope that it will be possible in the future.

Wow! It's very interesting and usefull video. I think that I could use some questions of the video in one of my lesson with the students. I'm  curious to know what it will happen.

Cultural Diversity Examples- Avoid Stereotypes while communicating (1)

In my classes the students have something like a sense of identity, but I often have to face divisions, which are not necessarily due to etnic or linguistic differences. When I work with students I always try to create the sense of a common goal to reach, so as to make them collaborate without any prejudice. My colleagues work with me and share my point of view generally speaking. But it is hard to work in a city in which different kinds of prejudices (not necessarily involving the identity issue) have been strongly rooted over the years. It is truly hard to overcome these difficulties and give them a sense of union with the "different" when they are not capable of getting on well with their "neighbour".

I found these videos about multilinguality very interesting and inspiring for my approach to different students and languages at school. I have some students coming from North Africa and East Europe who do not speak other languages than French and Russian (sometimes they use some English words). This fact caused problems to teachers. I know some French words and   English so I have so often helped these students to understand the language of instructions enabling them to carry out their assignements and to be successful in their school activities. It is also important to embrace their mother tongue but at the same time as they are attending a school in Italy they have to face the fact that learning the language of the host country is important for their fully growth as individuals. Multilinguality is the key to face the challenges of this century both at a cultural and working level so having staff members at school speaking a variety of languages is now a great opportunity to enhance and encourage students to interact among them in several languages, when different cultures cohesist then different languages must too

The ideas presented are very interesting.  I like use technology in my classes, I think is the best way to develop cultural and intercultural competences and to create a real context to use the acquired competences. Is's very important for the students work in group for increasing collaboration and share the knowledges. I don't know some tools but I want to learn them.

I teach in a secondary school and my students are between 11 and 14. They are overall from Italy but there are  some of them coming  from North Africa and East Europe. They are usually well integrated each others, we use to mix the students so the italians are usually Tutors of the Foreign students. The school offers also some potential courses so they can  learn  some basical instruments to speak, read and write Italian.

I think it's important to work on the concept of inclusion in a context of collaboration and listening to demonstrate to our students how all this is essential to today's world. We live in a world where the barriers no longer exist, and our kids will be well aware.

I agree with all areas analyzed by Alicia, Erika and Tomislav.
The words heard are all true. I think that the first step to becoming an intercultural teacher is to be open to others as stated by Erika.

A teacher, who is aware of his own culture, is able to open up to people of other cultures. A competent teacher is attentive to diversity and the cultural background of the students, such as cultural festivals (Alicia). On the other hand the 5 Areas expressed by Tomislav (reports of involvement of community-identity-parent language-pedagogical and social) are the best attitude of a responsible cultural teacher. Often it is known that working on public relations in the community is difficult. It is not easy to engage and collaborate with a work environment that is not ready to listen, to hear others. You ask me what my biggest challenge? To go forward every day with my views, my work with the other.

Hello! I'm Serena. I'm an Italian teacher. I believe that the Italian school is set up as a real "laboratory" of encounter between cultures and it is important to accept and promote the integration of these people. We have to live,  study and work  togheter.
