Breaking Down Stereotypes: Enhancing Cultural Sensitivity in the Classroom

Location

Auditorium

Description

When students lack understanding of and respect for other cultures, it hinders their ability to positively impact the global community. Teachers must develop students' awareness about the value of cultural diversity and the damaging effects of stereotypes. Through this demonstration I'll draw on my experience working with students in Poland by exhibiting and discussing their work surrounding stereotypes, and delve into the exploration of how their attitudes changed.
