Increasing diversity among teachers and students is one of the most critical adaptive challenges facing schools. The intent of this book is to address issues of organizational culture and its relationships in creating inclusive schools. The authors provide teachers and school leaders concrete suggestions to address workplace relationships; to respond to intergroup conflict; to create positive exchanges among different ethnic groups of teachers; and to create a strategic process to address diversity issues. |
