Multicultural education emphasizes incorporating diverse cultural histories, values, and perspectives into teaching. It aims to help individuals recognize and overcome social and cultural biases, fostering a more inclusive environment. The five identified dimensions include content integration, knowledge construction, prejudice reduction, equity pedagogy, and an empowering school culture. A key goal is to equip students with the knowledge and skills to make informed decisions and engage in civic action. Additionally, language barriers among students can complicate understanding, highlighting the need for effective communication in multicultural classrooms.
