Currently, diversity education is offered at college campuses across America, which gives young adults an open mindedness and creates an accepting environment so all students are recognized and respected that the K-12 public education system cannot provide. With the evolving diverse population of this country, it would follow that public education would integrate curriculum that fosters the same accepting environment in order for all students to feel welcomed in the classroom. This thesis looks at the effects that acceptance in the classroom can have on a student as well as a new method by Cotton, AIR, that is used in several workshop examples as well as resources for teachers looking to blend this into their teaching.Type
