Teaching Diversity (for NYIT 610 Course, in particular)

One approach to consider when organizing, planning, and reflecting on instruction that embraces student diversity is to make Diversity, itself, a focus of learning. Below are a good number of links to materials that reflect different facets of this approach. Care to add to this list?
