From students' cultures emerge different ways of constructing knowledge, making sense of experiences, and learning (Gay, 2000). The majority of teachers, unlike their students, are white, mono-cultural females who lack experience with individuals of other cultures. Student diversity is increasing at a faster rate than teachers of color. As a result there is a cultural mismatch between students and teachers.\u003cbr\u003eThis book introduces readers to cultural mismatch and culturally responsive teaching. Two mechanisms for activating change are presented in the \"Framework for Overcoming Cultural Mismatch: Roles of Teachers and Administrators\" and the \"Inclusive Schools Action Plan.\" Stirring up a sense of urgency in educators and then guiding school teams on planning and implementation, teachers and school leaders can commit now to equity for all students.\u003cbr\u003eIn order to effectively teach all children - regardless of ethnic, racial, socioeconomic, religious, and other differences - practicing and pre-service teachers must be aware of the role a student's cultural background plays in their readiness to learn and how they learn. In order to develop this awareness, teachers must reflect on his or her own cultural lens and how it informs teaching.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbigail Fuller\u003c\/b\u003e is assistant professor of education at Ave Maria University and a former school administrator, special education specialist, and teacher.
