Elective 1 Teaching Multicultural Classrooms
Culture is defined as the learned behaviors, beliefs, values, and ideals characteristic of a society or population. Culture is acquired through three main processes: enculturation, acculturation, and deculturation. Enculturation is learning one's own culture, such as traditions. Acculturation is adopting traits from other cultures, like students from rural areas gaining urban traits. Deculturation is fully losing one's original cultural identity and adopting a new culture. Children learn culture from models like parents and teachers, through social learning and imitation. A child's development and a society's traditions both influence how culture is acquired. Key aspects of Filipino culture include values like utang na loob (reciprocity), pakik

Intercultural education
Intercultural education aims to promote understanding, tolerance, and respect between all nations, racial and religious groups. It seeks to enhance intercultural relations and increase acceptance of those who are different. The main objectives of intercultural education are to train people to perceive, accept, and respect diversity in order to mediate social relations. Intercultural education provides benefits such as the promotion of curiosity about cultural differences, the development of critical thinking, and the prevention of racism. For intercultural education to be successful, it must create a balanced curriculum, provide opportunities for communication between diverse groups, and present information from different perspectives.
Teaching diversity to young learners
This document summarizes a study on teaching diversity to young learners (YLs). It discusses implementing a culturally responsive curriculum across grades 2-8 that incorporates activities exploring gender roles, toys, flags, food, festivals, dances, and prejudices from different cultures. Students completed poems, drawings and descriptions to share their views. Teachers observed that views become more flexible over time and are influenced by media exposure and experiences. The conclusion advocates for diversity education and culturally responsive teaching materials to promote intercultural awareness when learning a second language.

C:\Multicultural Education Powerpoint
Multicultural education and diversity in the classroom are important for several reasons. Students learn best when they feel safe, trusted, and able to freely express themselves. For example, a school once failed to embrace a Chinese student's native language, but the parents fought for and obtained bilingual programs. It is also important for teachers to teach about different cultures, as shown by a middle school teacher teaching about a Native American tribe. Overall, embracing diversity in schools helps students of all backgrounds feel included and prepares both students and teachers for a multicultural society.

The overall goal of multicultural education is to ensure all students have an equal opportunity to learn by making changes to curricula, teaching approaches, school culture, and addressing issues of discrimination.
Multiculturalism
Multiculturalism refers to cultural diversity within a society where two or more groups with distinctive beliefs and cultures coexist. It also refers to government policies that recognize and support cultural diversity. Key aspects of multiculturalism include identity politics that advance the interests of minority groups, recognition and accommodation of minority rights, and the view that cultural diversity is compatible with political and social cohesion. However, critics argue that multiculturalism can undermine shared social values, encourage separatism over assimilation, and fail to adequately address issues like gender inequality.

The right to question critical literacy
The document discusses the role of teachers and teaching. It suggests that teaching is about creating learning spaces and contexts, and recognizes that both teachers and learners bring knowledge.

The role of the teacher is to empower independent thinking in learners and facilitate informed decision making. The needs of the specific learners must be considered to choose appropriate content and language levels.

In the readings, we have seen a variety of views about ways to introduce people to the growing diversity of the society around them. We learned about teaching tolerance as a part of multicultural education. It has been suggested that there is a clash of cultures, beliefs, races, and ethnicities in a global economy and that in order to live and work together people must be taught to appreciate each others’ differences. Please compose your initial response to the following statements based on your ideas and the resources you have located to support them.
Exposure to people from different, backgrounds, races, ethnicities, and belief systems is sufficient to learn both tolerance and an appreciation for what they can contribute to our society.
We do not need to be taught “multiculturalism” in our schools and work places. You cannot change what people think by “teaching” them about other groups different from themselves.

I attached my info along with my discussion question from module 1 at the bottom.
In this assignment, you will be asked to write a 2-page paper outlining how you define yourself culturally. If you recall from Module 1, you were asked to reflect on how the person you are today has been influenced by your group affiliations. You can include components of that discussion in this assignment although you will certainly need to substantially expand on what you wrote in Module 1. In fact, you will need to indicate your ethnicity, race, gender, religion, language, and age and discuss how each of these has contributed to who you are today. You will also need to think critically about which of these factors is the most important to you (i.e., on which factor do you base your decisions, values, and opinions?) and which is the least important to you. You will be asked to apply what you have learned so far (you can do this by incorporating content from scholarly sources) to what you write.
Tasks:
Write a 2-page paper outlining how you define yourself culturally. This can be an expansion of the discussion that you posted in Module 1 with content added from what you have learned in the course so far.
Indicate your ethnicity, race, gender, religion, language, and age and discuss how each of these has contributed to who you are today. You may discuss these in terms of where you are at present (e.g., what religion you currently follow), and, if you wish, you can include information from when you were younger (e.g., what religion you were raised with).
Explain which of these factors is the most important and which is the least important to you and share why you believe this to be the case. My info below:

Module 1 Discussion post below:
As far as cultural identity is concerned, I do not believe that I would be the great person I am today. In other words, group affiliation has had a significant influence in my life. For example, my ethnic community believes that customs, traditions, values, religion, language and norms are all part of culture and that they all should be recognized and respected. Similarly, it also believes in cultural diversity. By holding on to this culture, I have been able to maintain an open mind as far as cultural diversity is concerned.For this reason, I have been able to interact well with people affiliated to different groups. This has enabled me to avoid discrimination based on cultural diversity. From my own perspective, I believe that recognizing and respecting both your group affiliation and others’ is the most important aspect in shaping a person’s life as far as group affiliation and cultural diversity are concerned.
If I were to be asked, ‘What are you?’ I would simply respond by saying that I am an African-American, a Muslim and a culturist. While responding to this question, of course, some factors of diversity would be incorporated outright, for example t ...

Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.
