Chapter 1: Foundations of Multicultural Education

Short Answer
1. Many minority religions have only recently gained prominence in our society. Because of
these religions' greater visibility, teachers have to examine how they address holidays, the
dress code, discipline, and even subjects taught in the curriculum.
2. Enculturation and socialization are processes initiated at birth by parents, siblings, nurses,
physicians, teachers, and neighbors. These varied instructors may not identify these processes
as such, but they demonstrate and reward children for acceptable behaviors.
3. Social justice is an element of democracy that expects citizens to provide for those persons in
society who are not as advantaged as others. Social justice requires that our schools critique
their practices that interfere with equity across groups. Schools must confront social and
economic inequities that prevent students from learning and participating effectively in
schools.
4. Students will state their opinion about this statement, but it should be noted that the role of
education is very limited when it comes to reducing the amount of occupation and income
inequality. School reform has not yet led to significant social changes outside the school
setting. And providing equal educational opportunities for all students does not guarantee
equal results at the end of formal education.
5. Answer should address the following items:
a. The composition of the faculty, administration, and other staff accurately reflect the
pluralistic composition of the United States.
b. Differences in academic achievement levels disappear between males and females,
dominant and oppressed group members, and various socio-economic levels.
c. The school curriculum incorporates the contributions of many cultural groups.
d. Instructional materials are free of biases, omissions, and stereotypes.
e. Cultural differences are treated as differences, rather than as deficiencies that must be
addressed in compensatory programs.
f. Students are able to use their own cultural resources and voices to develop new skills.
g. Students learn to recognize and confront inequalities in school and society.
h. The faculty, administration, and other staff see themselves as learners enhanced and
changed by understanding, affirming, and reflecting cultural diversity.
i. Teachers and administrators are able to deal with questions of race, intergroup relations,
and controversial realities on an objective, frank, and professional basis.
