Dealing with Diversity: Some Propositions from Canadian Education

PDF Report

Organization/ Author: Benjamin Levin and J. Anthony Riffel (U of Man). 1993. Education Policy Analysis Archives 2(2): 1-13

Description:
“Increasing diversity in the population is a major issue for educators in North America, presenting political as well as educational challenges. This paper examines Canadian educational policy responses to four kinds of diversity - bilingualism (French/English), multiculturalism, the situation of aboriginal peoples, and the problem of poverty. A description of each issue leads to some speculations or propositions on the nature of diversity and appropriate educational responses to it.” (Abstract)
