11. Do we need to pay attention to
http://www.jeremycwilson.com/2010/02/diverse-admit-day/
diversity issues only if our
course content centers around
them? 11
12. How do faculty whose training occurred at least ten years ago (last
degree received) feel about teaching content with multicultural
complexities e.g. race relations, same sex marriages and issues in
general regarding , human sexuality? 12
13. What questions do we ask ourselves as
we prepare to teach a more diverse
classroom? 13
15. /
What different learning styles and
strengths do different students bring to
class that we need to be aware of? 15
16. http://minutemennews.com/2013/01/
What is our goal for changes in value and
attitudes when we teach about diversity
issues, if any â over and above âlearning the
material?â Should we have such goals? 16
