Abstract:
|
Virtually every college and university today feels the pressure to prepare students to live and work in a diverse world. The authors investigated how infusing diversity and equity into the curriculum works in practice on a college campus by examining five years of faculty annual reports. The vast majority (90%) of faculty included comments about course content, just under half (49%) included descriptions of different teaching strategies, and a minority talked about better understanding their students (18%) or themselves (16%). This article concludes with a discussion of the findings‟ implications and outlines recommendations for change. |
