The
teacher of this classroom had mentioned from the beginning of the year
that this was her multicultural class, but she also wanted them to
understand their differences more clearly. For example, one
student had the mistaken assumption that all students who spoke Spanish
came from Mexico. She wanted them to change their perspectives
based on their understanding of each other. We collaborated with
her during the project to get her opinions on the survey, and we also
collaborated with the students before and during the survey by adapting
and explaining questions based on their responses and their nonverbal
expressions. Each time, we completed a survey was somewhat
different based on the students and what we observed from the previous
class. Overall, we adjusted and adapted the survey to make it as
appropriate as we could for the students.
