What are some strategies effective teachers use regarding diversity issues?
What will be an ideal response?
Effective teachers encourage students to have positive personal contact with diverse students and think of ways to create such settings. They guide students in thinking critically about cultural and ethnic issues, and they forestall or reduce bias, cultivate acceptance, and serve as cultural mediators. Effective teachers also need to bridge the culture of the school and the cultures of students, especially those who are unsuccessful academically.
