Teacher Educators' Role in Promoting the Tenets of Multicultural Education

Few preservice and beginning teachers are prepared for the diversity of today's classrooms. Educators must be aware of the many ways in which people are diverse and recognize that diversity is an enormous advantage. By 2010, 40 percent of students will be minorities. U.S. teachers are predominantly middle-class European Americans, yet one in four children (predominantly minorities) lives in poverty.
