As a father it is one of my personal goals to make sure my daughters have a well – rounded view of the world and the people in it.  I think this skill is acquired through role models and personal experience.  How I conduct myself contributes to the role model part, what opportunities I support my daughters through help with the experience part.  On page 209 I read this quote that solidified my efforts towards this goal: “Opportunities through which students learn to construct new frames of reference with these features make for a powerful educational experience.”  This is obviously in reference to a student’s experience in college however, I think it ties to my daughters’ current life experiences as well.  Some of the features included mindset and habits that lead to inclusive and open ways of thinking.
