Quatrième de couverture :
"Every day college and university faculty ask themselves the question, ′How can we become more effective teachers of a culturally diverse student body?′ This book provides the most comprehensive and useful answer that I have ever read. Drawing upon years of experience and research with students from various cultural backgrounds, Wlodkowski and Ginsberg offer faculty a remarkable integration of theory and practice full of the kinds of insights and strategies they can use today." Michael Nettles, professor, Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education, University of Michigan Raymond J. Wlodkowski and Margery B. Ginsberg combine their respective expertise in motivation and multiculturalism to go beyond the usual rhetoric on promoting diversity, offering real–word guidance and suggestions for successful teaching in today′s changing classroom environment. Through extensive examples and illustrations, the authors describe the norms, procedures, and structures necessary to accomplish each motivational goal. And they present a set of eight guidelines showing how to revise a syllabus, create an action plan, form a cooperative collegial group, and identify a new role to carry out culturally responsive teaching.
