What’s in the Kit?

Appreciating Diversity is truly one of a kind.  There is nothing else like it! 

With more than 120 pages of program materials and resourcesAppreciating Diversity  contains everything you need:

●  4 Extensive Learning Programs

●  Comprehensive Program Notes - any staff member can pick this kit up and deliver comprehensive and dynamic  lessons, and sound like an expert immediately.

●  Learning Outcomes for each program - we're educators and know the importance of having clearly defined outcomes for every program, so we have written them for you.  As a result there is no guess work trying to work out what you're hoping to achieve.  It's all provided.

●  Detailed Scripts - that's right, every program is completely scripted so that even the uninitiated or least    experienced staff member can be confident in knowing they are delivering absolutely everything necessary to develop the leadership capability of your students.  Of course the scripts don't have to be used, however we know how some teachers like the support that scripting can give them when delivering something for the first time. 

●  Probing Questions and Answers - at the appropriate time in every program, questions are provided for the       teacher to ask the group to ensure the lesson is interactive and has the group involved.  The ideal answers are also provided to ensure the teacher facilitates the discussion in the right way, so that the learning outcomes for the program are achieved. As a result, nothing is left to chance. 

●  Directions on how to get the most out of each program - at the start of and throughout every program, there are comprehensive notes to guide the teacher on how to maximise the benefit of every program.  These instructions ensure the program is effective and the impact lasting. 

●  Group and Individual Activities - an extensive range of activities are provided to ensure that every person attending the lessons play an active role and learn through participation.  Full instructions are given on how to set up each activity.  Scripts to introduce activities to the group are provided along with clear instructions on how to facilitate activities and their timings.  Critical points to debrief each activity are included to ensure the key learnings are taken away by every person.

●  Preparation Checklist – enables you to quickly and easily ensure that you have everything you need to conduct each lesson before you start.

Program Handouts

Animated PowerPoint Slides                                       

So that you can focus on making a difference immediately, we want you to start using the program as soon as you buy it. That’s why we have gone the extra mile and developed all of the PowerPoint slides you will need to deliver each program - saving you hours and hours of work!                                                                 

Certificate of Completion Template                           

Mock Trial

That's right, a Mock Trial. Imagine if your students had to argue a case and a jury had to decide whether someone was guilty or not guilty of racism. Based on real events, this activity will have your class spellbound as the events unravel themselves in front of their very eyes. Witnesses for the prosecution and defence are called, a judge presides while the lawyers work hard to win the case. All the resources are provided, including role cards, instructions on room set-up, scripts as well as a comprehensive guide for the program leader to facilitate the activity. This is an experience no student will forget as the players put everything on the line and the group's learning goes even deeper. This program is exclusive to schools that buy Diversity At School and Beyond. It's a fantastic addition to the program.

 

Activities Pack

Add real variety to your programs by utilising these additional activities we've developed and included as a bonus when you order Diversity at School and Beyond. You may want to work through all of them in one session along with those in Program 1, or spread them out so that the group is regularly reminded of life on the fringe with a disability. Even the every day can seem insurmountable. These activities are a powerful way to learn the importance of appreciating the challenges that face people with a disability.

 

Developing a Diversity  Strategy and Communication Planner

Every school must have a consistent and unified approach to diversity. Critical to this is the school's Diversity Strategy. A guide is included that outlines that various issues that need to be considered in preparing and developing a school strategy. Strongly encouraged is the involvement of a range of stakeholders so your school has a rounded view and position on this important issue.

 

This Planner maps out the entire calendar year and is a fantastic extension to Program 4: Tools for Embracing Diversity. Involve everyone in your plans and in an instant you will be able to identify the opportunities you have to deliver your message through your strategy. This is a great tool and FREE when you order Diversity at School and Beyond.

 

When you consider everything this kit contains, including the comprehensive notes, outcomes, scripts, questions and answers and activities, this is a package every school should have.

Program Overviews

Appreciating Diversity is a complete package of materials that teachers can start using immediately

The Kit consists of 4 programs you can deliver to every student.  This is what you will receive when you purchase Appreciating Diversity

PROGRAM 1: Defining Difference and Diversity

 

Difference exists at so many levels. While some differences are physically apparent and easily observable, other differences are not so easy to perceive. It's vital that students identify and appreciate the range of differences that exist among people, and to develop a respect and appreciation for these differences to help create better communities for the future. This fully scripted program will lead them to develop this knowledge and appreciation through a series of revealing and thought-provoking activities and content.

PROGRAM 2: Diversity and the Law

 

When it comes to diversity, the law has a role to play. Legal systems are structured to protect and promote difference in society. Participants must recognise the ways in which unlawful discrimination can and does occur  and the importance of having laws to try and prevent it legally. Your students will be clear on how NOT to discriminate in the future, as well as being more aware of what action needs to be taken to prevent or stop it when it's witnessed. One aspect they will not forget - the consequences if someone is found guilty of illegally discriminating against another person. It never fails to drive the point home.

PROGRAM 3: The Contribution of Diversity

For discrimination and harassment and racism to stop, the population needs to acknowledge that a diverse population is necessary for the community to grow, develop and advance in the future. Substantial evidence has been found to demonstrate the impact a diverse population can have on a community economically, culturally and educationally. Once everyone recognises this contribution, they will be better able to appreciate the importance of diversity and therefore act to protect and encourage it. It all starts with your students.

PROGRAM 4: Tools for Embracing Diversity

 

This is more of a handbook or tool kit than a program. Included are a great range of ideas and resources in the form of a series of tools to use in the development of strategies for promoting and appreciating diversity. The tools are are designed as action sheets that can be delegated and distributed to people responsible for implementing a particular strategy. It's when your school uses several means of demonstrating its commitment to diversity does it send a powerful message to your students and the wider community.
