White Teachers, Black Students

Fachbuch aus dem Jahr 2019 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Soziales System und Sozialstruktur, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: I wrote 'White Teachers, Black Students' to highlight the ways that Black college students can be taught by all teachers, but White teachers, specifically. Because White teachers dominate the teaching staff in education at all levels, it is imperative to provide rumbustious conversations about how to effectively teach Black college students, especially when they are not graduating at the rate of their White counterparts. 'White Teachers, Black Students' provides a vision and recommendations for changing the way that Black college students have traditionally been taught. Creating a dialogue for a cultural shift in how Black students learn in the college classroom can contribute toward a heightened level of sensitivity for teaching and learning that reflects a more diverse and inclusive society. This book is about reimagining how Black students can learn in the classroom, through culturally responsive pedagogy, and not hand-me-down teaching pedagogy. Updating classroom techniques for teaching and learning will not only impact a student's ability to live the American dream and find a job, but also revolutionize their innate capacity for engaging in critical thinking in ways that positively impact how they exercise conscious control over their everyday lives.
