Cultural values play a big role in how students learn, especially in special education. Sometimes, these values can change how teachers plan lessons and how students work together.

For example, in cultures that focus on teamwork, students might do really well in group activities. They enjoy working with others and helping each other out.

On the other hand, in cultures that highlight individual success, students might prefer studying alone. They might feel proud when they complete tasks by themselves.

Examples of Influence:

• Group Activities: In cultures that value working as a team, students often shine in group projects. They like sharing ideas and collaborating.
• Parent Involvement: Sometimes, families may not be able to help as much due to money or other factors. Knowing this can help teachers find the right ways to support their students better.

When we include different cultural viewpoints, we create a welcoming space for everyone. This helps make sure that various teaching strategies connect with students from different backgrounds. In the end, this can help all students learn better.
