Abstract
With the growing population of the United States, we have seen an increase in diverse and multicultural communities, which is reflected in many of our schools, which have seen a rise in the languages, ethnicities, and cultural backgrounds of students. However, the teacher population in the United States is not reflective of growing student diversity, which negatively affects student-teacher relationships and student academic achievement. This research aims to understand teacher strategies to eliminate these negative impacts and teachers’ ability to recognize their own biases. How do teachers self-evaluate their own efforts to attend to students with culturally diverse backgrounds?
