Unlocking the potential of Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Students Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CLD) students bring unique life experiences, culture and skills to the classroom. In the US, the 1974 Equal Educational Opportunities Act requires schools to provide meaningful experiences and overcome barriers to equal participation. In order to uphold and protect this crucial federal law we must implement culturally responsive teaching methods. This workshop will explore a variety of personalized approaches, including plurilingualism, that unlock CLD students’ true potential, build their confidence and provide opportunities for success. Content addresses core value 1.2 Identity and cultural diversity. |
