Cultural Diversity in Your Classroom-Rerun (SchoolEducationGateway)

In this first course of the series, participants will have the opportunity: to share their experiences of working with a culturally diverse student body, to discuss different scenarios of the positive use of cultural diversity as a learning context, to analyse teaching and other resources under the prism of effective intercultural communication, and to develop classroom activities that will potentially recognise and strengthen the class community as a culturally diverse environment.

The course is relevant to any teacher working in a culturally diverse environment or interested in developing students’ cultural awareness and expression.

The course lasts 3 weeks covering two modules. Module 1 looks at how to develop intercultural competences, and Module 2 explores how to recognize and value cultural diversity for learning in the classroom.

Upon completion of the course, participants are awarded a digital certificate and digital badges. If all three courses as part of the series are completed, a special certificate and recognition is awarded on top of the individual course certificates. The other courses in the course series are:
