Summary This action guide is about understanding individual differences from an environmental and contextual perspective and will hopefully lead to an understanding of how better to engage students in the learning process so they can increase their academic performance. /// We have established 5 goals for this guide: provide a knowledge base about cultural orientations of the communities from which students come; provide suggestions on promoting culturally attuned motivational strategies; examine the impact of culture on ways of learning; provide suggestions on ways to structure culturally responsive classrooms and provide examples of the theory and ideas in practice that the reader can translate to the classroom. /// This guide is designed to be used primarily as a school staff-development project or as an independent study project. It can also be helpful as a text in a graduate or undergraduate teacher-education course. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2004 APA, all rights reserved).
