Abstract

GARCIA, Mercedes García; CORONA, Diana García; LOPEZ, Chantal Biencinto  and  BARBERA, Coral González. From exclusion to inclusion: a way to understand and deal with cultural diversity in school institutions. Rev. psicopedag. [online]. 2009, vol.26, n.79, pp.108-123. ISSN 0103-8486.

Attention to student diversity is a basic principle of present educational systems. Literature about diversity can be found on many different fields (social-educative, special education and psycho-pedagogical) all of them working parallel. As a consequence, different approaches have been developed sharing similar bases but using different terminology. The aim of this article is to elaborate, from both the theoretical and the applied education, a common frame of reference which helps us to understand the different ways of facing and dealing with attention to diversity in all school institutions. We support the theory that all elements (cultural, specific and individual) come together in a single dimension that could be useful to all managers, researchers and educational practitioners in order to elaborate coherent educational proposals and to interpret reality from the same frame of reference.

Keywords : Schools; Cultural diversity; Adaptation, psychological.
