In today’s society, one has to be culturally competent and sensitive to diversity issues in order to understand others. The reasons for this are to broaden one's worldview of others and be more open-minded, increase one's awareness of others' identities and cultures, as well as increasing one's knowledge of different ethnicities, races, and cultures. This allows someone to work with people from different backgrounds and be more accepting of the various cultures and people we will have to work with.…

Diversity literally means difference. Diversity recognizes that though people have things in common with each other, they are also different and unique in many ways. Diversity is about recognizing and valuing those differences. Diversity therefore consists of visible and non-visible factors, which include personal characteristics such as background, culture, personality and work-style in addition to the characteristics that are protected under discrimination legislation in terms of race, disability, gender, religion and belief, sexual orientation and age. By recognizing and understanding our individual differences and embracing them, and moving beyond simple tolerance, we can create a productive environment in which everybody feels valued.…

It would be very discouraging for children to be subjected to discriminatory beliefs that are held by either myself or other teachers for example my cousin wanted to be a ballet dancer when he was a child but after teasing from other members of the family suggesting that dancing is only for girls and gay men he did not continue to attend classes. This was something that he regrets as it was a dream of his and now he has grown up he wishes he had been encouraged to dance. By taking any of families or, friends or even my own beliefs in to school is unfair on the children I am there to support. They could be made to feel that if because of their background or who they are means they cannot aspire to be what they want to be so will not reach to achieve their full potential.As with another example my father-in-law is sexist and believes that a woman’s place is in the home cooking, cleaning and looking after the children and if I was to take that to school with me I could treat the girls differently dismissing their work and only encouraging the boys, giving the girls the false idea of they are not good enough. For example: “Both men and women teachers have low expectations of girls intellectual skills’ since it is thought that girls are inherently less intelligent than boys” (www.right-to-education.org)The support I give the children should be fair…
Diversity is defined as real or supposed that the differences between people of different race, ethnic, origin, sex, age, physical and mental abilities, sexual orientation, religion, work, and family status, weight and appearance. The identity and other attributes that affect their interactions and connections. The definition of diversity includes real and perceived to recognize the social constructs many areas of difference. In particular, the race is a social construct, but the perception of race, beliefs about people of different races, and discrimination based on race strongly influences people lived. Similarly, gender is socially constructed, that is the perception of how men and women should behave, rather than being representative of biological differences between them that might cause them to behave differently. These beliefs about the differences between men and women strongly influence the experiences of men, women, boys and girls in society and organizations. For example, engineering, finance and general accounting, earn more and have a more professional status as managers of human resources.…

It has always been interesting to me to see how people and most especially professionals react when that is predominantly populated by one gender and instead of both this include the way interacts in the workplace with a person of an opposite gender. There are two areas within communication that really got my attention; they are: how does your gender identity affect you as an asset to an organization and is one gender effectiveness better than the other or is inferiority complex that has been passed down through times.…
We can see some places that they have a higher level of diversity in various categories, such as race and gender. According to Insider Monkey, Pablo Erbar said Papua New Guinea is one of the most ethnically diverse countries in the world. More than 820 languages are spoken because of immigrants and diverse indigenous background. Max Fisher from the Washington Post draw a similar conclusion with what our textbook said: African countries are the most diverse. Uganda is the most heterogeneous. In workplace, I can tell the Workforce is becoming more diverse in the United States. In the States, the demographics of California, Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and New York show a great variety of people, especially, Blacks and Hispanics.…
What if someone wasn’t allowed to be themself? How might that make them feel? Gender identity is important to learn about because it helps to understand how one develops a different gender identity, so people can understand what gender identity actually is, and so that they don’t have to live in fear of discrimination for being of the opposite gender.…
Discrimination can be defined as treating someone unjustly or unfavourably particularly because of age, gender, race, or sexuality. We can see various examples of racial discrimination in the movie Remember the Titans from both races. We can see this particularly towards the start of the movie when Julius (dark) and Garry (white) are put into a room together, Julius puts up a poster but Garry makes him take it down which then leads to a fight. The fact that Garry starts a fight with Julius shows the audience that he feels that he is better than Julius because of the skin difference, and that is an act of discrimination.…
