ED 200 D - Ed & Identity in Plralistic Society


Minimum Credit(s) Awarded: 3
Maximum Credit(s) Awarded: 3

Students will explore, critically examine and experience the rich and varied cultural, linguistic and social diversity that comprises 21st century education and its history. Through self-analysis and reflection, students will gain a deeper understanding of what culture is and how it works, personal identity construction and the importance this personal awareness plays in the creation of a classroom culture that supports academic success for all students, regardless of cultural, social or linguistic background. Grounded in theories of intercultural competence, students will develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to engage students in ways that are culturally, socially and linguistically responsive and appropriate. Through materials and experiences facilitated in this course, students will gain an understanding of the ways in which social justice can be enacted in schools and the role of teachers as advocates and allies for an equitable, just and compassionate society. Course meets Wisconsin DPI American Indian Tribes requirement. Course will have a primary emphasis on Wisconsin Teacher Standards 3, 6, and 10 and will involve fieldwork.
