This course aims to raise awareness of issues of diversity and multiculturalism as part of the civic education process. We will first read theoretical writings highlighting the importance of dealing with different types of diversity as part of education in a democratic state. Following, we will examine various international case studies that deal (for better or for worse) with such issues, discussing the following topics: national diversity, religious diversity, racial diversity, gender diversity, and linguistic diversity. Finally, we will explore several pedagogical approaches that enable teachers and practitioners to address such topics in the classrooms. Throughout the course, students will be asked to reflect on their personal stances and roles in this regard.
