Grounds (Evidence): Exposure to diverse perspectives fosters critical analysis of societal norms and structures. For instance, a study in the Journal of Higher Education found that students who took diversity courses were more likely to engage in critical thinking about social justice issues (Johnson & Lee, 2020). This indicates that integrating diverse viewpoints in educational curricula not only enriches the learning experience but also equips students with the necessary tools to challenge and rethink prevailing societal narratives.
