“…Establishing open lines of communication is one method educators can use to build rapport with parents (Harris, 1996). However, educators should be conscious that typical strategies may need to be altered when communicating with American Indian families (Parette & Petch-Hogan, 2000).…”

Although most American Indian students are educated in the public school system, there is limited literature regarding (a) how general and special educators can effectively meet the unique educational needs of these students or (b) what strategies educators can use while working with their families. Additionally, there are limited resources available regarding how American Indians view special education, disability issues, and the relationship between school and family. The worldview of American Indians differs from mainstream America, which has led to the overrepresentation of American Indian students in special education programs. This article provides culturally responsive research-based practices to help foster school and family relationships and improve the educational outcomes of American Indian students.

“…CULTURAL SENSITIVITY Harris (1996) discussed the importance of understanding one's own culture in relation to other cultures as a necessary prerequisite to culturally sensitive investigation and practice. Cultural awareness at the beginning of the helping relationship has been found to play a significant role in the process and outcome of counseling when the counselor and client are from different backgrounds (D. W. Sue & Sue, 1990).…”

However, the broader field of consultation has not consistently acknowledged the importance of culture.…”

“…Strategies to reduce or eliminate affective discomfort can be faced with the inability to impact on change under conditions of globalisation that reach beyond the local (e.g. transnational investment in the housing market in London that drives urban redevelopment).The formation of new practices can also be obstructed by factors such as the speed of change that disables sustained reflection, learning and integration of new or modified practices (Harris, 1996). Nor can the argument tilt too far towards agency such that all human life is assumed to be a calculating machine (Reckwitz, 2002).…”

Marked by high levels of diversity and gentrification, changing demographics in east London highlight the need for new analytical tools to examine how formerly familiar spaces must now be renegotiated. Conceptual frameworks of habit and affect have informed the contemporary analysis of how encounters with difference unfold within transforming cityscapes. However, findings from a participatory research project with young people suggest a more reflexive management of classed and racialised encounters is occurring as accumulated cultural knowledge is tested and revised from which new practices emerge. Attention to processes of reflexivity highlighted the capacity of young people to consciously weigh options and choose a range of strategies under conditions of 'breach' , including: degrees of acceptance of change; re-working space use through avoidance and adapting everyday practices such as dress and food; as well as developing attributes that enable engagement such as empathy. Feelings of judgement appeared as a dominant driver of reflexivity, while disposition and place contextualised and modified responses. Yet, while the possibilities for subjective re-evaluation and adaptation are apparent, the study raises questions of inequality in the expectation that young people are being asked to adapt to new cultural norms not of their making.Retravailler la rencontre: rôle de la réflexivité dans la gestion de la différence RÉSUMÉ Marquée par une proportion élevée de diversité et de gentrification, l'évolution de la démographie à l'est de Londres fait ressortir le besoin de nouveaux outils analytiques pour examiner comment les espaces qui étaient familiers dans le passé doivent maintenant être renégociés. Les cadres conceptuels de l'habitude et de l'affect ont servi à l'analyse contemporaine de la manière dont les rencontres avec la différence se déroulent au sein de paysages urbains en transformation. Pourtant, les résultats d'un projet de recherche participative avec des jeunes suggèrent qu'il existe actuellement une gestion plus réflexive des rencontres de classes et de races au fur et à mesure qu'une connaissance culturelle accumulée est testée et révisée et à partir de laquelle émergent de nouvelles pratiques. L'attention accordée au processus de réflexivité a mis en évidence la capacité des jeunes à Reevaluando al encuentro: el papel de la reflexividad en el manejo de la diferencia RESUMENMarcada por los altos niveles de diversidad y aburguesamiento, la demografía cambiante en el este de Londres destaca la necesidad de nuevas herramientas analíticas para examinar cómo antiguamente los espacios familiares deben ahora ser renegociados. Marcos conceptuales de hábito y afecto han informado al análisis contemporáneo de cómo los encuentros con la diferencia se desarrollan dentro de paisajes urbanos en transformación. Sin embargo, los resultados de un proyecto de investigación participativa con jóvenes sugieren que una gestión más reflexiva de los encuentros clasificados y de carácter racial está ocurriendo a med...
