Abstract

This model of a science lesson interfaces multicultural education, biology and psychology. The main aim is to acquaint pupils with the diversity of cultures and natural behaviors.

Through the multimedial support the differentiation of human populations is primarily shown. Then the pupils observe the manifestations of a variety of emotions identical to all cultures.

Pupils are encouraged to discuss the importance of multiculturalism. Consequently using photos pupils evaluate and recognize expressions of different emotions.

Part of the lesson is a research that validates the performance of recognition of expressions with specific emotions. It is also focused on the multimedia effect on the attractiveness of teaching.
