I learned there is still a lot more gender and multicultural issues in the world than I thought there was. The quiz that we did as a class really taught me a lot more about these issues than I have learned in other classes. There was a lot of material covered in this.
I never realized how many different categories were covered under multiculturalism. There is gender, socio-economic status, age, race, ethnic heritage, sexual orientation, and religion. That is a lot to try and make work into a classroom, but I know that it will all be there. It was good to see some ways to work it out. Also, the website that we saw had some good lesson plans and ideas for teachers to use to incorporate many cultures and multiculturalism into the classroom.
I enjoyed seeing the current events because they put the whole idea into perspective for me. After seeing an actual movie about differences and challenges that schools face; they become more realistic. We also got to see how most multicultural schools incorporate experiential learning into their curriculum.
