 | Cultural Diversity Pedagogy and Meta-Case Design: A New Approach to Diversity in Education Subjects: Education; Research Methods ; Educational Research; Education Studies; Multicultural Education; Theory of Education; Qualitative Methods ; Case Study and Narrative Analysis; Responding to the growing need for educators to have a deeper understanding of cultural diversity, this book provides a theoretically-rich and empirically-sound analysis of diversity education, to develop a new cultural diversity pedagogy. The author deconstructs and navigates the complex field of diversity education, arguing for a more socially engaged approach, in which educators and researchers develop their perspectives on cultural diversity by examining their own assumptions, values, and beliefs. This is explored through a series of 10 case studies based in primary school settings demonstrating that teaching and learning environments are crucial to the success of cultural diversity.
