Culturally Responsive Teaching

Cultural sensitivity should be thought at an early age. It should begin at home, then carry into school learning, peer interaction, etc. We, parents, care givers have a social responsibility to teach young people to respect, appreciate, and learn about other people and oneself culture.

What other ways can young people learn to be more sensitive about their peer's culture?

Medical schools have being teaching cross-cultural competence to medical students, residents for decades.  But, how prepared and confident are these health care professionals about their attitudes and knowledge when treating people from different cultures then their own?  Medicine has identified stereotyping as one of the issues when teaching cross-cultural competence to medical students and residents.  Here is a great paper on a study done by Madison Gates and Kelly D. Bradley,
