Multicultural Education. Theory to Practice

Teachers from two urban elementary schools completed surveys about their multicultural education practices. The surveys examined demographics, content integration, instructional and grouping practices, and parent-community involvement practices. Results indicated that teachers were integrating some aspects of multicultural curriculum, and they were using a variety of approaches. Social activism was not a preferred approach. (SM)
