Our class involving "Diverse Learners" has been very thought provoking. The groups, panel discussions, and projects have correlated well with the readings in the textbook, Multicultural Education in a Pluralistic Society. Our class, as a group, has been a true representation of our pluralistic society in which we live.
It is important to remember that sometimes, as particular groups or cultures, we live and work in areas that have similar people. While no two people are the same, there are many likenesses within cultural groups. As humans, we should be open to each others' stories and life journeys. Much can be learned from each other.
I have personally enjoyed listening to the stories shared from our classmates. Their stories have literally come from all around the world. Many differing experiences and perspectives have been shared. I will walk away from this class with a pocketful of interesting thoughts and ideas concerning ethnicity, socioeconomic status, gender, exceptionality, language, religion, geography, and age.
