A Framework for Culturally Responsive Teaching Raymond J. Wlodkowski and Margery B. Ginsberg

This article is archived online through the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development and presents a framework for incorporating practical solutions for creating a culturally responsive learning environment.  The article describes a cultural history of education which has framed attitudes towards motivation towards external instead of intrinsic understandings.  Culturally responsive teaching is viewed as a way to encourage intrinsic motivation by allowing students to relate concepts to their own cultural backgrounds.
