Culturally Sensitive Curricula Scales
We are very pleased to announce the publication of an edited collection featuring several NERUPI members. Culturally Sensitive Curricula Scales, edited by Kathleen M Quinlan and Dave S P Thomas was published as result of a NERUPI Collaborative Project. It outlines the conceptualization, development, and use of a novel set of Culturally Sensitive Curricula Scales (CSCS) developed by Thomas and Quinlan as an instrument for students to rate the cultural sensitivity of their curriculum, as well as a self-reflection tool for educators to use in order to make curriculum changes. The book provides insights from the use of the tools collectively and individually in a range of higher education institutions across the UK, to inform curriculum revision nationally and internationally.
