Ruppert, Nancy; Adcock, Lee T.; Crave, Jared
Current Issues in Middle Level Education, v22 n1 p31-36 2017
Using five themes associated with a diversity intensive undergraduate course, preservice teachers in an upper level introduction to middle grade course described their knowledge of cultural competence using digital storytelling as the tool. Findings suggest digital storytelling provides a tool to explore and describe how cultural competence is developed from personal identity products to preservice teachers' beliefs as they relate to students in schools.
