Description
Kennedy Tielman focuses his research on cultural diversity, especially in Seniour Secondary Vocational Education and Training. He takes us through the cases he encounters in his research and in practice. How can you approach an unexpected, intercultural situation from wonder? What can you do when faced with an intercultural dilemma? Awareness of this ensures that teachers can better deal with tensions arising from cultural differences. "Through awareness, teachers' cultural sensitivity increases. As a result, they look at students less through those Western glasses, which benefits the atmosphere in multicultural classes."
