reflecting the diversity witnessed in our broader society. the 2022年世界杯中国小组赛积分 is committed to supporting diversity at vanderbilt, particularly as it intersects with the wide range of teaching and learning contexts that occur across the university.<\/p>\n<p>the following tips are taken from barbara gross davis&#8217; chapter entitled &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/teaching.berkeley.edu\/bgd\/diversity.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">diversity and complexity in the classroom: considerations of race, ethnicity and gender<\/a>&#8221; in her excellent book,\u00a0<em>tools for teaching<\/em>. we recommend that you read her full text to learn more about the issues and ideas listed below in this broad overview.<\/p>\n<p>davis writes: &#8220;there are no universal solutions or specific rules for responding to ethnic, gender, and cultural diversity in the classroom&#8230;. perhaps the overriding principle is to be thoughtful and sensitive&#8230;.&#8221; she recommends that you, the teacher:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>recognize any biases or stereotypes you may have absorbed.<\/li>\n<li>treat each student as an individual, and respect each student for who he or she is.<\/li>\n<li>rectify any language patterns or case examples that exclude or demean any groups.<\/li>\n<li>do your best to be sensitive to terminology that refers to specific ethnic and cultural groups as it changes.<\/li>\n<li>get a sense of how students feel about the cultural climate in your classroom. tell them that you want to hear from them if any aspect of the course is making them uncomfortable.<\/li>\n<li>introduce discussions of diversity at department meetings.<\/li>\n<li>become more informed about the history and culture of groups other than your own.<\/li>\n<li>convey the same level of respect and confidence in the abilities of all your students.<\/li>\n<li>don&#8217;t try to &#8220;protect&#8221; any group of students. don&#8217;t refrain from criticizing the performance of individual students in your class on account of their ethnicity or gender. and be evenhanded in how you acknowledge students&#8217; good work.<\/li>\n<li>whenever possible, select texts and readings whose language is gender-neutral and free of stereotypes, or cite the shortcomings of material that does not meet these criteria.<\/li>\n<li>aim for an inclusive curriculum that reflects the perspectives and experiences of a pluralistic society.<\/li>\n<li>do not assume that all students will recognize cultural, literary or historical references familiar to you.<\/li>\n<li>bring in guest lecturers to foster diversity in your class.<\/li>\n<li>give assignments and exams that recognize students&#8217; diverse backgrounds and special interests.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>resources to help you achieve an inclusive classroom that fosters diversity are provided below.<\/p>\n<h2><a name=\"strategies\"><\/a><strong>inclusive teaching
