What is Coursework, field-based teaching practices, and multicultural experiences: Analyzing the determinants of preservice teachers’ ethnocultural diversity knowledge about?

Based on a performance test of 819 preservice teachers from six different teacher education programs in Flanders (Belgium), the current study examined the links between preservice learning opportunities and future teachers' ethnocultural diversity knowledge. Multilevel regression analyses revealed a significant relationship between integrating diversity throughout education courses and preservice teachers' diversity knowledge. No relation was found between cultural diversity knowledge and stand-alone cultural diversity courses or field-based teaching experiences. The article concludes with a brief discussion of the implications for teacher education programs.
