The Color of Teaching

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

One of the major concerns in education today is how to recruit and attract more teachers of color into the profession. In an attempt to move beyond the superficial and simplistic responses as to why students of color are not entering teaching, The Color of Teaching presents in-depth interviews with over two hundred persons of color from tour ethnic groups: African-Americans, Native Americans, Asian Americans and Latinos in the United States. These interviews, many of them teachers or education professionals, express their attitudes toward teaching and their understanding of why students of color may not be selecting teaching as a career.
