Abstract
- The article discusses the importance of inclusive classrooms in promoting fairness and justice. It highlights the negative impact of discrimination on children's learning and well-being and proposes interventions to foster morality and justice. The article presents research on children's moral development, prejudice, and group dynamics. It concludes by emphasizing the potential of inclusive classrooms to reduce prejudice and create a more just society. The DIY program, developed by Melanie Killen and her team, aims to reduce bias and prejudice among children through animated scenarios and classroom discussions. A trial showed that participants had more inclusive attitudes and higher expectations for children of different backgrounds. The program has the potential to empower future generations to combat injustice. [Extracted from the article]
