Discrimination In Multicultural Schools

Intro
Today’s America’s ability to provide a basic education to anyone is truer than ever before. Does it mean everyone gets an equal education? The concept behind education is an individual who has been educated and knows all the answers. For some this is a person who has been through the rigors of school and graduated. Most of us want to believe it is someone who makes a living with what they have learned. Adult education is flawed and does not provide the best education for people. Education starts as child and ends when the adult receives their degree. Pedagogy students have not developed the patience or the experience to be educated. Therefore, education only truly comes when a person goes through life and has become a mature adult.
The environment in the school should provide everybody with an equal opportunity to maximize their learning potential. The school should offer a unique learning experience for every individual within the school’s environment. However, discrimination comes up as a major issue in a diverse cultural make-up. Discrimination adversely affects the education of diverse students in the classrooms. It is evident that biases in our education system contribute to the underperformance of students from minority groups. The students most affected by these problems are Adults other than Caucasian.

Together a consensus of changes could be enacted. Continuing on, another factor affecting adults is

If the world continues to be more interconnected, education will need to represent the function global community. The impact affects undereducated immigrating adult, therefore education becomes a necessity. Globalization impacts how we live, and how we communicate with each other. If we do not have a strong education system in place for Adults, communication is impacted. Do adult learning expectations, philosophy change and evolve? Currently, these questions remain unasked. Scott focused on three areas: economic globalization – its purpose and impact, with an educational emphasis; an alternate vision for a sustainable future, and the role of adult education in the transition to a post-modern world (Scott, 2008) Beveridge’s focus was how knowledge developed under the influence of globalization. He reported the significance of knowledge development in educational institutions and argued that the very nature of universities and staff influenced the type of knowledge generated for students (Scott, 2008). What could be possible solutions for globalization in the American education system? As educators, we can ensure the curricula meets the demands the private sector has placed on adults. Emphasize the importance of government involvement in adult’s secondary educations, in that the burden is not left
