Research Title:<\/strong> Teacher Self-Perception in Multicultural Student-Teacher relationships, evaluating biases and efforts to engage with student’s culture.<\/em>
Research Poster<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Abstract:<\/strong> With the United States growing population we have seen an increase in diverse and multicultural communities, we see that reflection in many of our schools as the population within schools as well and with that we also see in increase in languages and different ethnicities and different cultural backgrounds. However, is the teacher population reflective of the student\u2019s changing population or is there a disconnect between the teacher\u2019s background culture, language and ethnicity and does this create a negative or positive affect on student-teacher relationships, does it create bias and is there an effect on academic progress. The study is a mixed-methods design collecting both quantitative data collected from multiple choice questions and Likert scales and qualitative data from questions that require a short response. From the findings of this study, we would be able to get an insight of secondary teachers in Eastern Washington on bias and student- teacher relationship building in multicultural and ethnically diverse classrooms. This study would also help us hear from teachers on whether current policies and training regarding inclusion are perceived as effective from the perspective of educators. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
