註釋
As demographers paint multifaceted portraits of the twenty-first-century workforce, businesses scramble to understand the implications for their organizations, universities struggle to integrate diversity issues into their curricula, and individual instructors face questions of how to teach effectively about this increasingly important topic.
Teaching diversity is different from other instruction. Rather than reporting objective themes or imparting detached information on new management techniques, diversity teaching involves questioning our institutions and policies, our definitions of truth and equity, our self-images and our professional roles. It requires a deep personal journey of self-discovery and growth. Teaching Diversity explores that journey.
In this book, seventeen management educators offer instructors a map to the diversity terrain, helping them choose a personal teaching path, recognize crossroads, anticipate roadblocks, and sustain personal commitment along the way.
This is no ordinary edited volume. It is a creative and collaborative effort that will benefit readers professionally and touch them personally. The contributors--women and men from a wide range of ages, cultures, and backgrounds--join forces in a commitment to provide a realistic portrait of this personal, at times painful, yet always energizing work.
Through heartfelt accounts of their own experiences, Gallos, Ramsey, and their associates take a unique look at the paradoxes inherent in the diversity teaching process and provide grounded insights and sound advice about how to prepare for the kind of teaching that changes lives.
