In our class Cultural Diversity in the Classroom, seven groups were formed in the beginning of our academic semester. Each of these groups were charged with forming two day presentation, on instructing the rest of the class on a specific topic (selected from the book Diversity Training for Classroom Teaching by Caroline S. Clauss-Ehlers). The topics were as follows:
- Cultural Values and Worldview
- Socioeconomic Status
- Race and Ethnicity
- Language in the Classroom
- Working with Diverse Families
- Gender and Sexual Orientation and Youth
- Bullying
Our group, consisting of Shayla Dahl, Heather Hanson, and Aaron Peck, elected the topic "Gender and Sexual Orientation and Youth" as our topic of choice.
The information in this blog is the presentation materials, outlines, and references that we used in order to form our presentation covering this topic. The intent of this blog is to provide you with the information we used, and allow you the opportunity to comment on the material.
Your comments will be presented on this blog, (If you want it to remain anonymous, that is okay), and the information you provide will be helpful to us three as future teachers, as well as the rest of our class. As well, this information will be stored away as to be a strong foundation on which future aspiring teachers can build upon.
