Four general approaches to teaching multicultural issues are presented, followed by critical reviews from each perspective of the other three approaches. Next, the authors propose a teaching approach that integrates all four of the perspectives. Lastly, four applications of the integrative perspective are described.  \nIntroduction  \nCurrently in the field of education, there is a great push to focus on diversity and inclusion, with the aim to increase safety for, respect toward, and acceptance of different cultures through teaching cultural competency programs. Ideally, educators would be inclusive through understanding and welcoming differences; however, education has along history of assimilating persons from different cultures into what is basically a White Euro-American system. Too often “social justice” and  \nRockey Robbins and Ji Hong are professors in the Department of Educational Psychology in the Jeannine Rainbolt College of Education at the University of Oklahoma, Norman, Oklahoma.

Profound positive change in regard to appropriateness and equality requires that teaching approaches, pedagogy, and more relevant curriculum changes take place to accommodate increasingly diverse populations (Patel, 2016) . To do so would be a step in a direction to disrupt what are basically white pedagogies that dominate formal education systems in the United States.  \nIn the U.S., k-20 classrooms consist of students who have a wide range of experiences and background culturally, linguistically, racially, and ethnically. Each student who has been embedded in diverse and multi-layered social contexts bring in their own cultural knowledge, unique ways to think and feel, and different ways to handle challengesand engage in help-seeking behavior. In order to tap into all students’potential and maximize each student’s learning, educators need to develop diverse approaches that draw oninvaluable resources of students’language, culture, history, and relational and communication styles (Gonzalez, Moll, & Ammanti, 2005; Rivet & Krajeik, 2008) . Instead of assimilating diverse groups into interactive styles of dominant society, the integrative teaching style attempts to accommodate the educational system to the diverse unique learning needs of students (Brown-Jeffy & Cooper, 2011) .  \nAn Indigenous person, the first author of this article, was inspired to create this integral teaching approach by the wisdom found in various tribal medicine wheels. In general, Indigenous medicine wheels have four directions, represented by different signifiers and colors (which vary according to different tribes and sometimes clans) . The four directionson the medicine wheels are often associated with critical dimensions of our lived reality, such as: mental, emotional, socia","cbCaimuo7sBCTG1N","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimuo7sBCTG1N","pdf",123804,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Problems with Teaching Multicultural Issues\n# Authors’ Integrative Fourfold Approach\n# Applications of the Integrative Perspective","[{\"question\":\"What is the core purpose of the Integrative Fourfold Approach described in the article?\",\"answer\":\"The article aims to teach multiculturalism by integrating four teaching perspectives, using critical review to combine the strengths of each viewpoint into one coherent approach.\"},{\"question\":\"How do the authors evaluate different multicultural teaching perspectives?\",\"answer\":\"They present four general approaches first, then offer critical reviews of each perspective from the standpoint of the other three, highlighting limitations and opportunities for improvement.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the main applications mentioned for the integrative perspective?\",\"answer\":\"After proposing the integrated approach, the article describes four applications that show how educators can apply the integrative framework in teaching multicultural issues.\"}]","Integrative Fourfold Teaching Approach for Multicultural Subjects - Journal Article - Vol. 33 No. 1-4 | PDF",1792095346]
