Study of Multicultural Education in American Basic Education

Multicultural education represents a significant direction in the reform of American basic education. This study systematically examines the developmental trajectory, current implementation status, and safeguarding mechanisms of multicultural curricula within American basic education. Findings reveal that the United States has established a tiered and categorised curriculum standards system, developed implementation models such as subject integration, thematic teaching, and activity-based immersion, and created a safeguarding mechanism combining teacher training, textbook development, assessment, and community support. This curriculum system emphasises cultural integration and equality, prioritises practical innovation and diverse participation, and exerts significant influence on promoting educational equity and cultivating global citizens.
