Resource Directory for Diversity Practices
About the Directory
The Resource Directory for Diversity Practices, compiled by CAA’s Committee on Diversity Practices, provides a range of materials that is useful for incorporating issues about diversity in its various forms into the classroom. The directory offers, as a starting point, a fraction of the myriad available documents addressing topics related to diversity, including ethnicity, race, gender, sexuality, disability, and aging. Areas for additional resources include language, religion, and socioeconomic class. A cumulative project, the directory will continue to grow throughout 2012.
Categories
The Resource Directory for Diversity Practices is divided into five sections:
- Getting Started
- Classroom and Curricula
- Diversity Issues in Academe
- Images and Documents of Art and Culture
- Syllabi
