Multicultural, Gender Fair (MCGF) Needs: All instructors need to be aware of the course materials to make sure different cultural, racial, ethnic, and genders are represented in addition to students with and without physical challenges. A quick search of “multicultural” on the AEA’s WEBMAX yielded 444 items found including numerous videos, books, and CDs for professional and student use. Searching “gender” yields 71 items, including 27 DE Streaming items.
