Abstract

The concept of multicultural education is widely applied at educational institutions of the USA. The term of multicultural education refers to the process of education in the process of culturally diverse interaction aimed at establishing favorable relations of mutual exchange and mutual understanding between representatives of different cultures. In most US schools, teachers and administrators were forced to divide racial groups without any guidance in order to establish good ethnic relations and improve the performance of minority and majority students. The purpose of this article is to elicit important concepts and theories that serve as characteristics of segregated schools, and to find out guidance for effective desegregation under different conditions. The article is based on the analysis and interpretation of works on multicultural education written by well-established Russian and international researchers, dedicated to the identification of trends in the development of multicultural education in the United States and worldwide. The authors come to the conclusion that some of the essential aspects of multicultural education is career-long training teachers to work in a multicultural class. The teacher should ensure productive interaction among students of different ethnic and racial identity; understand and value students' cultural background; use multicultural strategies and training technologies to establish social justice in society.
