• W347797921 abstract "Ain't what it used to be. Although a bit eccentric, this quote by Yogi Berra serves as a humorous reminder of the many changes in agriculture, in education, and in society in general. The list, below in Figure 1, published by the Institute for the Transfer of Technology to Education (Bailey, Lumley, & Dunbar, 1995) represents some compelling facts on the nature of change for the 21st century. This list elicits some interesting thoughts on the nature of change in agricultural education, the role of the teacher and how that role has changed, and the challenges associated with meeting rapid changes and preparing for a future that Yogi Berra so poignantly says, Ain't what it used to be. Perhaps one of the biggest changes and thus challenges to teaching agricultural education in the new century is the fact that students have changed. In fact, the demographics of the United States population as a whole have changed. The 2000 Census (U.S. Census Bureau, 2001) reported that while 75 percent of the total U.S. population was white, non-Hispanic and 25% of the population comprised the other ethnic groups (including Black, Hispanic, American Indian, and Asian/Pacific Islander to name a few), a total of 65% of the nation's school age children were white, non-Hispanic with the remaining 35% comprising minority groups (U.S. Census Bureau, 2001). The U.S. Census Bureau (2001) projects that by the year 2040, there will be no ethnic majority group in the United States. Further, roughly one-fifth of school age children speak a language other than English at home and 39% of students live at or below the national poverty line (U.S. Census Bureau, 2001). Racially, ethnically, and economically, today's students are very different from past populations and they continue to change at a rapid rate. Not only are today's students more diverse demographically, they also differ greatly from their instructors in mindset. Each year, Beloit College in Wisconsin publishes a Mindset list to inform college and postsecondary educators about the of their entering freshmen. This list can inform both secondary and postsecondary teachers regarding how greatly students differ from themselves. For example, according to the Beloit College list for the graduating college class of 2006 (Mindset, 2002), this year's entering freshmen (or last year's graduating high school seniors), had their mindset shaped by the following from a list of 50 facts: A Southerner has always been President of the United States; South Africa's official policy of apartheid has not existed during their lifetime; Cyberspace has always existed; George Foreman has always been a barbecue grill salesman; the U.S. and the Soviets have always been partners in space; males do not carry a handkerchief in a back pocket. Ozzy's lifestyle has nothing to do with the Nelson family; and genetic testing and DNA screening have always been available. In reflecting upon this list, how do your students differ from you in mindset? Research provides us with some guiding principles for addressing diversity in our classrooms. According to theories of culturally relevant teaching (Ladson-Billings, 1994), culturally relevant teachers know that: when students are treated as competent they are likely to demonstrate competence; when teachers provide instructional scaffolding students can move from what they know to what they need to know; the focus of the classroom should be instructional; real education is about extending students' thinking and abilities; and finally, effective teaching involves in-depth knowledge of both the students and the subject matter. …" @default.
