This heterogeneous culture is mostly technology based. A homogeneous society, a society that is made up of one culture, is little bit more rare, but not extinct. The homogeneous culture is more interdependent because it doesn’t have access to technology because they are so isolated.
A controversial topic of education, whether it is a right or a privilege, remains highly disputed till this day. Viewing education as a right sets many peoples’ perspectives astray from its original intention, helping children from poor families to attend school.

On the other hand, the privilege of an education creates a burdensome fee for many poor families, causing a rise of many illiterates.
Most professor poorly understands the cultural background that the student is in, which means that teacher cannot help with student’s performance, correct their unappropriated behavior based on the indigenous social norms. In this case, universities need to provide teacher appropriate training about the diversity and multicultural education.

The disadvantages that migrant students may face in education within their receiving countries can include problems through communication, integration and negotiation. Many of these difficulties arise as a result of existing racism, language barriers, religious indifference and national ignorance to cultural variety. Migrant students may not reach their full academic potential as a result of this cumulative disadvantage (Darmody, 2011) in education. A resolution to this problem can be difficult to pin point although measures have been taken to encourage integration and racial acceptance through constitution giving equal rights to education etc. National teachers and students of the receiving country must make a conscious effort to enable migrant students full development on an academic and social level to avoid these existing
Schools are also becoming more strict when it comes to the kind of language that is used and are thus creating an environment for dialect levelling. Programs and TV shows are all the same kind of language or dialect and all this makes it harder for a dialect to survive. In the United States they go even further.
