I feel very lucky that I was able to experience different cultures and beliefs. I was able to learn about different religions and cultures from a very young age. My mom is a teacher, and I spend a lot of time volunteering in her classroom. I am able to experience the different backgrounds students come with and how that affects their education. I agree that diversity is much more than just race and ethnicity. It encompasses what makes you, you. ]]> 2020-01-19 23:02:35 UTC https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/433467428 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/433467953 How to have an inclusive classroom that accepts and teaches about other cultures and beliefs?]]> 2020-01-19 23:07:28 UTC https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/433467953 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/433770315 Diversity is around us all the time.

Growing up in Southern California there were a lot of, as previously mentioned, different ethnicity, religious beliefs, varying genders. However, I think diversity goes even further into different learning abilities, different political beliefs, differing backgrounds, etc. All of these pieces effect a person, in different ways, and I witnessed a decent amount of them growing up. strojek98 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/433819551 2020-01-21 03:19:30 UTC https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/433819551 I want to know how to make everyone feel comfortable in my classroom and how to take politics out of the classroom because it doesn't belong there? strojek98 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/433820639 Growing up students had very strong differing political beliefs that sometimes dominated and distracted the classroom.

I grew up in a school/town, that was predominatly white. One day we had one colored student show up that sent many shock waves throughout the school and community at large. Teachers and students alike acted like an alien had shown up and invaded our lifestyle. If the educators of the time had some sort of training, I think that would have gone a long way in helping that student fit in. ]]> 2020-01-21 16:22:13 UTC https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434083483 wilc9811 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434090677 I want to know more about different ways to be culturally inclusive through examples.

I also have learned that many ways that I approach diversity isn't quite enough. I tend to be more of a treating people as just people and not going beyond that. Being inclusive means moving beyond just treating everyone the same, and instead to understand how best to make the field as equal as possible by considering everyone and getting to know them individually. trok1567 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434104085 2020-01-21 16:51:27 UTC https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434104085 lars2511 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434128671 We know that diversity is all around us.

Diversity can sometimes have a plethora of negative connotations attached to it because of all the negative things in the our history that were formed on the foundation of diversity. For example the holocaust and the Jim Crow laws were both horrible things that happened and were both founded on diversity. But diversity has positive aspects to it as well because it makes us who we are. Our backgrounds, heritages, religions, traditions, etc., all makes us incredibly unique which means we all have something that only we can bring to the table in this world. ]]> 2020-01-21 17:33:11 UTC https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434132255 Inclusion garbericw_19 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434139052 From working in the Moscow school district last year, I saw teachers utilize some incredible strategies to promote inclusion to the student body. One of these was a student group project where students would be randomly grouped and given a country to research for a month. They would study questions from population and languages spoken, to religious affiliations and government traditions. At the end of this month, each group goes before the school to present what they have discovered. The students do this dressed in the traditional clothes and holding probs that would represent their given country. The project shows each heritage and back ground is happily welcomed because of how well they are represented and respected with each presentation. What I want to know is how to incorporate more things like this in just your average classroom setting.  ]]> 2020-01-21 17:43:07 UTC https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434139052 There will always be room to learn more about diversity. Even if we think we really know our own culture, I think we can always be constantly learning in ourselves and around us. corydearing11 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434147932 2020-01-21 17:55:42 UTC https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434147932 Strategies corydearing11 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434150451 I would love to know different strategies to get useful information from students. What information about ethnicity, culture, and language can be gleaned from a classroom of students?

That question, and also what truly makes up all diversity. I think I have a few ideas on what makes people different, but I am sure that I am missing a few things in my own understanding.]]> 2020-01-21 17:59:03 UTC https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434150451 garbericw_19 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434152660 So far, we have learned to be aware, open, and welcoming to diversity in our world today. Slowly, I believe diversity is becoming something that is more and more so accepted as a positive thing within our society. Though we have present issues in our country like closing the boarders or not accepting refugees, it is still strongly encouraged to not be afraid of what makes you unique and set apart from others. ]]> 2020-01-21 18:02:03 UTC https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434152660 Race vs. Ethnicity corydearing11 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434156945 There's a difference?! I didn't know that before. Race is usually talking about the biological, "outside" things you can see about a different person, such as someone being an African American, or Caucasian.
Ethnicity, however, dives much more into the heritage of a person, their culture, and where they grew up.]]> 2020-01-21 18:07:49 UTC https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434156945 strees_st5666 https://padlet.com/shaw0901/dea5d2c737qe/wish/434324441 I agree with the following comments above that diversity encompasses many different thing, such as the differences in culture, religion, language, race, and ethnicity to name a few. Having diversity in a classroom can be challenging when considering lesson plans and make sure everyone feels included and have the best environment to learn as much as they can but it can also be fun because everyone has the opportunity to share and learn many different things from their fellow classmates.

So I would like to learn all I can about how to make sure everyone is included in a culturally diverse class as well as how to make sure that I can be culturally sensitive to many cultural groups. And overall, I would like to learn as much as I can about how to handle a culturally diverse classroom so I can be confident in going out on my own to hopefully teach my own class.

And to have a successful class environment that feels welcoming to all of our students so they can feel comfortable to learn is by teachers being culturally sensitive and aware of the different backgrounds each student comes from.

I think that this has put me behind in a way because now as an adult I am having to do more research when I could've been exposed to it as a child. I think that teachers have a huge impact with helping teach new things like diversity. How one talks about certain thing impacts how a student is going to learn and therefore think about that matter. It is important for teachers to teach diversity, but also to not be biased when teaching to avoid their students feeling one specific way about something. -Caitlin Schappert
