OVERVIEW:
The primary purpose of this course is to
explore problems/issue regarding multicultural/multilingual early childhood
education. These issues will be dealt with in such a way that, as teachers,
those taking this class will be able to better support in children: (1) a
knowledgeable, confident self-identity (2) a comfortable, empathetic
interaction with people from diverse backgrounds (3) a critical attitude
toward bias and (4) a propensity to stand up for her/himself and for others in
the face of bias. It will also assist teachers in developing better coalitions
