Description

Through Buffalo State University’s IPDS (International Professional Development Schools), I gained experience student teaching at the International School of Siena for 8 weeks in Siena, Italy. This study explored if and how multiple cultures and student backgrounds are integrated into the classroom and the benefits of doing so. Examining how that is done at the International School of Siena, a school with students from various countries, can demonstrate the positive impact of fostering a multicultural classroom community. The results of this research would be beneficial to schools in the United States, as culturally responsive teaching can enhance the learning experience of both the student and teacher.
