Instructor Information

Quick Actions (Only for Validated Instructor Accounts):

This new edition of Human Diversity in Education provides coverage of current events and relevant legislation is incorporated throughout the book to ensure students are educated on the most critical issues teachers are faced with in today's classroom.  It prepares new teachers for the certainty of change as well as the challenge of new thinking that is required for young people to take their place as responsible, reflective, and active citizens in an increasingly interdependent society.  Case Studies in each chapter present students with situations they may encounter in the workplace, and accompanying questions ask them to determine how they would react when faced with the same situation.
