Abstract

The concept of culturally responsive teaching is utilized here to expand the knowledge base of scholars, leaders, and practitioners in higher education settings who are committed to cultivating a learning environment where relevant and inclusive curriculum equals real-world opportunities for all students. Emerging from a pedagogical lens, this chapter will expound upon the implications for the application of culturally responsive teaching in ethnically diverse higher education classrooms.
