The American society is increasingly getting diversified in terms of race, color, culture, ethnicity, language, and sex (Sadker, Sadker & Zittleman, 2008). The rising diversity is expected to continue in the future. In the classroom, and in order to meet the needs of the increasingly diversified population, an effective approach needs to be adopted. Thus to be responsive to the society needs, America needs to promote cultural diversity by introducing culturally responsive teaching.
The issue of Cultural diversity is relevant in the society and needs to be addressed. This is because first, there is a rising cultural diversity in the American population. It is estimated that by 2030, 50% of students in schools will be of color Sadker, Sadker & Zittleman, 2008. Second, there is need to address the growing inequality between various groups. Whites and Asians score higher on average than Hispanic and African American students. In addition, 50% of these under resourced groups drop out of school (Sadker, Sadker & Zittleman, 2008). This results to a rise in social crimes and a general deterioration in the society. Finally, there is likely to be a persistent increase in cultural diversity in terms of races and ethnicity.
One way of achieving the benefits of cultural diversity as suggested by Unruh and McCord (2001) is through influencing teachers' attitudes is important in order to enhance the rising diversity in American schools. Whereas existing teachers' education programs insist on multicultural sensitivity and teaching methodologies, individual dispositions and attitudes towards diversity may affect the effectiveness of the education system. To achieve effectiveness and expectations of the rising diversity trends, it is important not only to focus on fixed programs but to also focus on influencing individual teacher's attitudes. An environment that accommodates cultural diversification would result to a more conducive environment for learning. First, to the individual student, it would result to a sense of worth and thus chances for better achievement. In the general school environment, it would result to a culturally rich and complimenting environment. Finally, a culturally diversified school environment would be reflected in the society creating a condition of respect and general society well being. To meet the needs to the increasingly diversified population, it is important that proper steps are taken to promote cultural diversity in the education setting.
资助和管理美国学校——Financing and Governing American Schools
Governing and financing of American schools has been an issue of interest. Local and state governments have faced challenges on governing and raising adequate finances for education. In the endeavor to provide adequate and affordable education, governing of schools has been a central issue. Despite being an integral part in a school, teachers have for long been relegated to the classrooms with minimal contribution in governing their schools (Sadker, Sadker & Zittleman, 2008). This
essay argues that for effective governing of schools, teachers need to be more involved in decision making.
This is an important issue in the society for several reasons. First, as reported by Morehead (2003) the major problems that teachers face in the school environment are 'low pay, central direction
