EDECE2001 Diversity: Children, Families and Communities
This unit will examine diversity and difference through a range of theoretical lenses. PreService Teachers (PSTs) will explore constructed categories such as age, ability, gender, sexuality, disadvantage and ethnicity, and consider how these may impact on children, educators, families and communities. Policies, organizations, resources and teaching practices that honour diversity and support participation for all children will be identified.
