Tolerance in multicultural education : development of interventionstrategies for educatorsCox, Cheryl Pearl 06 1900 (has links)
Multicultural education is only one of the major changes, which have occurred since the
inception of the new democracy in South Africa. However, this inevitable change has
resulted in many challenges for both educators and educational institutions.
A literature study was done to discuss and clarity concepts of multicultural education,
culture, race, ethnicity, bias and anti-bias. The perspectives, principles and history of
multicultural education in the United States of America, Britain and South Africa were also
investigated.
An exploratory study, using a qualitative research design, was done to investigate
educators' viewpoints on multicultural education in schools. The results of the investigation
indicate that there is a lack of tolerance in schools and that educators require training and
intervention strategies to help them cope with the changes in a multicultural education
system in South Africa.
Recommendations regarding training and policy implementation were discussed and
intervention strategies for educators have been given. / Educational Studies / M. Ed. (with specialisation in Guidance and Counselling)
