VISION OF THE TEXAS
CHAPTER OF THE NATIONAL
ASSOCIATION FOR MULTICULTURAL
EDUCATION
The Texas chapter of the
National Association of Multicultural Education is committed to the development
and implementation of the goals and objectives set forth by the National
Association of Multicultural Education. It is our vision that all students have
full and fair participation in a just society by learning the intrinsic value of
their own self-worth and learning to value and respect diversity. We will work
actively to promote the basic tenets of democracy, cultural pluralism, and
equity for all by educating all stakeholders (educators, students,
policy-makers, parents, and community members) about the goals and meanings of
multicultural education; recruitment of new stakeholders at all levels;
implementing instructional strategies and curriculum that encourage equal
participation, appreciation of diversity, and social action from all students;
advocating the adoption of educational materials that accurately reflect the
contributions and perspectives of all members of society and are free from bias;
and by engaging each other in on-going professional
dialogue. Join NAME! |
