商品簡介
As labor migration both within and outside of countries continues, and nations continue to develop, children are increasingly learning in groups with children from ethnic and racial groups about which their grandparents only shared whispers. This practical guidebook gives teachers and administrators means of involving all students. The collection of eight essays starts with a description of analytical frameworks and systematic changes in curriculum and teachers. Case studies include an analysis of textbooks in terms of their support of diversity and social cohesion, racial content in textbooks before and after apartheid, the recent experience of Romani children in European schools, and diversity in textbooks used in the US. Essays on applications include social analysis in the design of World Bank education projects, and guidelines for international assistance agencies in interventions.
