Identities of Achievement in Multicultural Urban Schools

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Responding to a need for greater cultural competence in the preparation and development of teachers in diverse public school settings, this book investigates the critical developmental and social processes mediating students' academic identities in those settings posing the greatest challenges to their school achievement and personal development, and it provides an accessible, practice-oriented culturally responsive framework for teachers in American schools. Murrell's situated-mediated identity theory - which emphasizes examining not just the child, not just the school environment, but also the child in-context - builds on current thinking about multicultural teacher preparation and provides the practice component underpinning theories about cultural competence.
