Question 1
You are a second-grade teacher, whose students are highly diverse in their cognitive abilities. Which strategy would be most effective in meeting all of their needs?
◦ graded challenges
◦ a decelerated curriculum design
◦ one-on-one tutoring
◦ ability grouping
Question 2
Based on his understanding of cultural difference in learning, a teacher assigns the Asian American students in his class quiet, individual math exercises and assigns the African American students a rhythmic group exercise pertaining to the same math concept. Why is this a poor strategy?
◦ The Asian American students will perform better if they have a performance-based exercise, and the African American students will benefit more from quiet individual exercises.
◦ Individual children have different learning styles, and cultural or ethnic background is only one of many factors that dictate learning style. The teacher made inappropriate assumptions about his students.
◦ All students will learn the topic better through the group exercise, so the African American children will have a better understanding of the concept than the Asian American children.
◦ All the children will be influenced by stereotype threat; none will perform well because they're expected to behave in a culturally specific way.
