Integrating Multicultural Practices to Ensure Success for Diverse Learners

Abstract

In recent years, our society has experienced a major renaissance regarding cultural and personal beliefs, which has affected the overall environment and traditions within our current school settings, thus the need for integrating multicultural theoretical practices to ensure success for diverse populations within Pre-K-12 and postsecondary education. According to Guo and Jamal, there is a need for learning environments to embrace diversity and engage in the personification of respect for the views, beliefs, and values of students. This body of work is focused on the identification of barriers surrounding academic achievement for diverse learners in the Pre-K-12 and postsecondary settings and provides useful tools and strategies that educators may use to further support diverse learners.
