Communication usually fails,except by accident

The fundamental Wiio's law states that "Communication usually fails, except by accident". The full set of laws is as follows:

Communication usually fails, except by accident.

If communication can fail, it will.

If communication cannot fail, it still most usually fails.

If communication seems to succeed in the intended way, there's a misunderstanding.

If you are content with your message, communication certainly fails.

If a message can be interpreted in several ways, it will be interpreted in a manner that maximizes the damage.

There is always someone who knows better than you what you meant with your message.

The more we communicate, the worse communication succeeds.

The more we communicate, the faster misunderstandings propagate.

In mass communication, the important thing is not how things are but how they seem to be.

The importance of a news item is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

The more important the situation is, the more probably you forget an essential thing that you remembered a moment ago.

 

what is essential for multicultural education how does it differ monocultural education

Multicultural education is an idea, an educational reform movement, and a process (Banks, 1997). As an idea, multicultural education seeks to create equal educational opportunities for all students, including those from different racial, ethnic, and social-class groups. Multicultural education tries to create equal educational opportunities for all students by changing the total school environment so that it will reflect the diverse cultures and groups within a society and within the nation's classrooms. Multicultural education is a process because its goals are ideals that teachers and administrators should constantly strive to achieve.In essence, monocultural education creates a context in which schools do not embrace minority students’ cultural knowledge, which includes historical, social, and cultural background experiences. Oftentimes, there is also cultural and linguistic bias factors in the education of minority students. To allude, insufficient teacher awareness of culturally diverse students can create a few misunderstandings in the area of teaching minority students. For example, whenever a mainstream teacher thinks minority student’s behavior is bizarre, rude, or unexpected, it can be a sign of cultural misunderstanding. According to Harper de Jong, “Students who speak a language other than English at home and whose proficiency in English is limited are the fastest growing group of k-12 students in the United States. Unfortunately, well-intentioned efforts to include diverse learners in general education reforms are often based on misconceptions about effective instruction for ELLs. The misconceptions stem from two basic assumptions that guide much current teacher preparation for diversity.” As a result, a teacher may be unaware of the background knowledge of minority students. To this effect, the teacher is unable to help minority students solve daily learning tasks, which can cause any lesson to become meaningless.
