Culture and Education Blog Prompt


Hello All.

I'm posting our last written blog prompt relating to our experiences thus far. As a reminder, these prompts are meant to provide each of you with an opportunity to further reflect on our coursework, our school visits, and our cultural visits. Please answer this prompt on your own blog site, and give it the title "Culture and Education."

Thinking about our visits to Holmes Elementary, Global Neighborhood, the Refugee Parent's Panel, Jacob's Well, the Salish Language Workshop, the Julyamsh Powwow, the American Indian Education Center, Riverfront Farms, Great Northern School District, and what we've been discussing in our academic classes, what did you discover about how cultural background affects students' success in school? In what ways is this similar to your home country? In what ways is this different than in your home country? As an educator, how do you understand your role in assisting students from a variety of cultural backgrounds to be successful in school?

As always, please feel free to view one another's posts and comment on what is written. Thanks again to you all for all of your hard work.

Sean Agriss
