Theauthors provide perspectives on the social justice implications ofeach condition.

Diversity and Motivation includes resources to helpeducators create a supportive community of learners, facilitateequitable discussions in linguistically diverse classrooms, designengaging lessons, and assess students fairly. The ideas in thisbook apply across disciplines and include teaching practices thatcan be easily adapted to a range of postsecondary settings.
