Diversity of Learners
As I have expressed previously in the two topics above, diversity plays a major role in each classroom today, and is something that each teacher has to face. Diversity can be anything from race, gender, socioeconomic background, or even learning style. By knowing this, it is important that I become aware of the different diversities in each class, and make sure that each is respected.
