Cultural Bias, Self-Identity, and Self-Efficacy
Abstract
The goal of this chapter is to provide an overview, promote awareness for cultural competence, and to illustrate various forms of deficiencies in multicultural education among educators in the United States. When serving as an educator, it is imperative to accept the responsibility of ensuring equal educational opportunity for all students. It is understood that most individuals naturally acculturate themselves with those whom they have connections with and are most comfortable with. This is no different among minority students who are new to the United States. Cultural norms must be acknowledged and students should be accommodated to foster a more engaging learning environment. Educators should engage in multicultural training and encourage culturally diverse and appropriate exchanges among all students. This will result in more confident students who would be more likely to feel connected, accepted, and esteemed; thus, giving students a foundation to to develop motivation to learn.
