EDEL-520 The Impact of Culture in the Classroom for the CLD-ELL Teacher

This course is designed to engage participants in gaining an understanding of cultural values and beliefs in the context of teaching and learning. Candidates will understand and apply their knowledge about the effects of racism, stereotyping, bias, and discrimination as they develop instruction and classroom climate that purposefully addresses these issues. Candidates plan lessons that reflect culturally responsive teaching techniques demonstrating the interrelationship between cross-cultural issues as they relate to home events and the transition among the culture and language at home, the culture and language at school, and the impact on CLD\ELL's in the P-12 classroom environment. Candidates explore the range of resources and support available to cultural groups in order to include different cultural perspectives in their curriculum and instruction.
