Cultural and Linguistic Diversity
Given the high number of
students from diverse backgrounds, today it is more important than ever
before that educators be aware of cultural differences. Lack of
knowledge of these differences can lead to the overrepresentation of
students from diverse backgrounds in special educations and the
underrepresentation of these students in gifted and talented programs.
To help you better meet the needs of your students from diverse
backgrounds, CEC has created this resource. It includes information on
strategies to teach students from diverse backgrounds as well as
research, and current issues concerning cultural and linguistic
diversity as well as CEC policies and resources.
