multiculturalism/multicultural education  

Definition(s)

  • Multiculturalism/multicultural education is a set of ideological and pedagogical commitments to providing education for and about diverse groups. Though most often associated with education for students of underrepresented races, multiculturalism more accurately refers to students of all races, ethnicities, genders, religions, sexualities, abilities, ages, socioeconomic backgrounds, national or geographic origins, and languages.
