Title overview

Teaching for Diversity in Canadian Schools provides a Canadian perspective on an issue that should be of significant interest to all educators and Canadians, especially given the sociopolitical vicissitudes of our contemporary world in which diversity is, ironically, one of the few stable phenomena. One fact is incontrovertible - these are unsettling times, and works such as this take on renewed urgency as we strive towards creating more just and inclusive societies and institutions nationally and, arguably, internationally.
