Challenges teachers encountered in teaching students from other
cultures - this data was collected by Annie Lopez for her
dissertation on teaching strategies used by teachers in
multicultural settings. The open-ended question asked "What are
the challenges in teaching in multi-cultural settings?"  A
misconception on their part that they are not understood.   A
black student making fun of a Chinese student's heritage when
she didn't get her way.   A Chinese student dealing with remarks
about her parents being Anglo, she gets frustrated explaining
about her adoption.   A black boy who made a comment that there
are good black athletes (He was making a general comment not at
anyone in school).   Acceptance of other students within the
classroom just having students get along.   Acceptance of
differences   Accused of showing favoritism to Whites.   
Acquiring sensitivity to issues affecting students, I have
difficulty relating to the    students with a different culture.
