This checklist is presented as a self-test for school administrators (including principals, superintendents, supervisors, curriculum assistants, subject-matter specialists-consultants, librarians, deans and presidents) whose work helps to enhance multi-cultural curriculum development in schools and colleges. The goal of this kind of curriculum is to eliminate racism, sexism, elitism, and ageism. It incorporates the anthropological concept of culture and includes the physiological, psychological and sociological dimensions of a group of people. A multicultural curriculum is concerned with minorities and other groups. It emphasizes an understanding of third world concepts and recognizes content which is not of European origin. (Author/AM)
