Overview & Synopsis

Examines the contradictory effects of teaching multicultural education in two U.S. white women's university classrooms. Uses discourse analysis of the course, readings, and a field trip to understand the confusing results of teaching about difference. Concludes with ideas for a post-positivist approach to knowledge and experience that emphasizes interpretations. (DSK)
