| Summary: | Teaching Gender and Multicultural Awareness provides information about how to integrate topics of diversity into a variety of psychology courses and programs of study. Because psychology now contains a rich body of knowledge that reaches across gender, social, and cultural lines, a single class about gender or cross-cultural studies is no longer sufficient to teach students about multiculturalism. Instead, such issues need to be incorporated into each part of the psychology curriculum. This edited volume helps instructors integrate information about diversity into their classes and directs them to useful printed, video, and Internet resources. It also includes creative projects and exercises that they can use in introductory or graduate level courses. Filled with guidance by expert teachers, this book is a resource for educators who seek effective methods to give students a comprehensive understanding of the culturally evolving world in which they will live and work.
