Describe four ways in which multicultural education can be approached
What will be an ideal response?
Multicultural education can be approached from a contributions perspective, in which ethnic historical figures whose contributions and values are consistent with American mainstream culture are discussed. The additive approach adds a unit made up of concepts, themes, point of view, and accomplishments to the curriculum. A third approach is the transformative perspective, which assumes that there is no one valid way to understand people and events and that every point of view has worth. Finally, the social action approach requires students to make a decision and take action on a concept, idea, or historical figure.
