Teachers are faced daily with the challenge of teaching and managing learners of unfamiliar cultures, languages and backgrounds. Multicultural education introduces various models of multicultural education and provides practical, low-cost classroom strategies which teachers can implement effectively in culturally diverse schools.\u003cbr\u003eMulticultural education explores concepts of diversity in society from various theoretical perspectives and discusses the implications of differences and similarities among South African learners. Practical activities at the end of each chapter allow teachers to reflect critically on their own practice, and assist educational leaders to carry out professional development in multicultural education in their schools.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents include the following:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSouth African policy and legislation relevant to diversity issues\u003cbr\u003eCross-cultural communication\u003cbr\u003eTeaching in the linguistically diverse classroom\u003cbr\u003eMulticultural approaches to curriculum and learning material\u003cbr\u003ePositive discipline in the culturally diverse classroom\u003cbr\u003eMulticultural education is aimed at teachers, members of school management teams, school governing bodies and interested parents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+J.N.+van+Wyk\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eJ.N. van Wyk\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"J.N. van Wyk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47377411866787,"sku":"9780627029509","price":455.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9780627029509_42990f5f-3836-4578-9b6f-08232c1fe22b.jpg?v=1776483463","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9780627029509","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
