culturally relevant education  

Definición

  • Culture-based education consists of educational practices that affirm a community's culture by recognizing and validating its spiritual, cultural, and social mores, global perspectives, and language while promoting awareness of the community's ancestral and contemporary accomplishments. It uses familiar cultural contexts to facilitate the assimilation of new information, thereby preventing cultural mismatch, a term used to indicate cultural differences between the home and school environment that make it difficult for a child to determine appropriate school practices.
