Multicultural education

An idea, an educational reform movement, and a process whose major goal is to change the structure of educational

institutions so that male and female students, exceptional students, and students who are members of diverse racial,

ethnic, language, and cultural groups will have an equal chance to achieve academically in school (p. 1).


"the term multicultural education describes a wide variety of programs and practices related to educational equity, women, ethnic groups, language minorities, low-income groups, and people with disabilities"


Banks and Banks (2001)

Multicultural education

Gay (2000) and Ladson-Billings (2004) defined multicultural education as adopting a culturally responsive pedagogy with trained instructors facilitating it.


Culturally Responsive Teaching is a pedagogy that recognizes the importance of including students' cultural references in all aspects of learning (Ladson-Billings,1994).


Nieto (1996) defined multicultural education as “antiracist education” which is “a process important for all students”

Slide 13 - Mind map

Social inclusion in education

Farrell (2000, p. 154) describes inclusion as:


Taking a full and active part in school-life, be a valued member of the school community

and be seen as an integral member.


Social inclusion is the process of improving the terms on which individuals and groups take part in society—improving the ability, opportunity, and dignity of those disadvantaged on the basis of their identity (The World Bank Group).

Proposed reasons voor educational differences (Woolfolk, 2009):
    1. Socio-economic status: relative standing in the
    society
based on income, power, background and
    prestige

    2. The cycle of poverty and low achievement

    3. Low expectation; low academic self-image

    4. Peer influences and resisting cultures

Critics on multicultural education
Definition of assimilation :
"the state of being assimilated; people of different backgrounds come to see themselves as part of a larger national family. (one-way proces)


Definition of integration:"the action of incorporating a racial or religious group into a community." (two-way-proces)



Bernstein (1994) argued that multicultural education hinders the assimilation efforts and creates a divisive society.


Ravich (1990) argued that multiculturalization pose a threat to the best of what U.S. education has to offer the values, beliefs, and traditions of Western civilization.

Slide 23 - Slide

curriculum
National curriculum: based on the Dutch cultural identity (example: Canon van Nederland) (mono-cultural approach)

Inclusive curriculum: include topics or theme’s that persons of other cultures can identify with. (can stimulate stereotype thinking (cultural approach)

“No, I don’t think I ever heard about Africa, except for how many people live there and how much poverty there is.”

Democratic curriculum: educating democratic citizens (pluralistic approach focusing on all types of diversity).
