Summary:

"Teaching Diversity will be an invaluable support for instructors deciding what and how to teach in this highly politicized area. Ahoo Tabatabai shows how teaching and learning about diversity can create connections between identity and community, helping to combat the greatest challenges facing society today. This Teaching Guide provides guidance on the key facets of diversity pedagogy, such as developing course outcomes, pacing content, creating an inclusive classroom environment and navigating an asynchronistic delivery method. Chapters include step-by-step advice on writing a course description, worksheet guidance, suggested reading and in-person and online teaching techniques. This interdisciplinary book advances the teaching of diversity by reframing ideas and is an invaluable resource for instructors and teachers in diversity, identity, sociology, psychology, social work and the humanities. The practical guidance will be particularly beneficial for leaders and administrators overseeing diversity in colleges and universities"-- Provided by publisher.
