Applying Katz's ideas in culturally diverse settings requires educators to:
Understand cultural differences: Learn about the cultural backgrounds and values of the children and families they serve (New, 1994).
Adapt the Project Approach: Choose project topics that reflect the interests and experiences of diverse learners, and involve families in the learning process (Beneke & Ostrosky, 2015).
Foster a sense of belonging: Create an inclusive classroom environment that celebrates diversity and promotes positive relationships among children and families (Katz, 1995).
By taking a culturally responsive approach to implementing Katz's ideas, educators can create learning experiences that are meaningful and relevant to all children.
