This book offers practical advice and empirically proven best practices for teaching high school and college students about diversity. It outlines ways to overcome student misconceptions and resistance, and methods for managing emotional responses that can be aroused in discussions of diversity. The book opens with a conceptual framework, contrasting the integration of culture across the curriculum with tokenistic approaches. Subsequent chapters identify classroom practices. These chapters describe feminist principles of education that promote learning for all students, and address principles of effective on-line instruction for diverse populations. The book is intended for faculty and administrators in the design and implementation of diversity courses and initiatives. Gurung chairs the Human Development Department at the University of Wisconsin. Prieto teaches psychology and directs the US Latino/a Studies Program at Iowa State University.
