Multicultural education

 

In the project "Traces of the past - Education for the future" we prepared special handouts for teachers. They can support the preparation process of your own educational activities, which aim at getting youngesters more sensitive to the cultural diversity.
A list of educational methods using in multicultural education. Chack if you know and use each of them.
When asked about multicultural education, we respond: Of course, we have been doing it for years. We organize school holidays devoted to different cultures, we prepare exhibitions of students’ works, we invite representatives of national or ethnic minorities. Great, but is it enough?

Scripts od the lessons

 

Within the programme students explore their neighborhood in search of places, buildings, objects and culture phenomena they would like to take care of. However, before they make a decision regarding the topic of the project, they should give a second thought to the meaning of such words as a monument and cultural heritage. They should also think how to read cultural landscape of their town and what is the most important – what is the role of young people in protection of monuments?
During the lesson students realize that we all have impact on world we live. They ask themselves if everyone can be a hero.
Students learn what stereotypes are and when we use them. They discuss undesirable effects of stereotypes.
