=Diversity Resource Guide=

//The gap in academic achievement shows the need for more education about tolerance in the classroom. The increase of etnically and racially diversity in schools makes this eduaction necessary for both teachers and students.

As I am preparing to be a math teacher myself, I found that// [|Teaching tolerance] //will provide me with articles and lesson plans and other resources to eduacte my self and my students. This website has very interesting posts from other teachers and I can add comments. This way, teachers can share experiences about teaching tolerance in the classroom, and how to deal with difficult situations.

I also want to have the link about// [|demographics] //handy. I believe having a factual perspective about the US immigration patterns can help students understand the importance of tolerance.// //I plan to use the data for math problems, and I will also search students' country of origin with the global [|telescope] during class. Another interesting and rich in resources webite is [|Inclusive teaching]; it was created by the Center for Instructional Developmental Research (CIDR) in the Univ. of Washington.//
