Publisher's Synopsis
Sonia Nieto makes student learning the primary objective of multicultural education. Going beyond curriculum integration, she draws on a host of research in learning styles, multiple intelligences and cognitive theories to portray the ways in which students learn. She then takes us beyond individual learners to discuss the social context of learning, the history and manifestations of educational equity, the influence of culture on learning and critical pedagogy. #FDECentering on multicultural education as a transformative process, the text includes many reflections of teachers who have undergone this process and whose experience will be invaluable to others.
