Teachers of Color, Students of Color and the Achievement Gap by Veronica Black https://padlet.com/veronica_black/ru8js56urtyk Missing in Action en-us 2018-09-09 22:06:55 UTC 2025-11-18 09:48:08 UTC hello@padlet.com Purpose of the Research veronica_black https://padlet.com/veronica_black/ru8js56urtyk/wish/279214966 §  The purpose of the study is to determine whether teachers of color have a significant impact of students in color with regards to achievement and learning. Pass studies have indicated that minority children particularly African-American American and Latino students tend to do better with teachers who share a like cultural background. As we look at the achievement gap that continues to grow particularly for African-American students in comparison to their white counterparts, the quest is to find ways to close the achievement gap]]> 2018-09-09 23:34:01 UTC https://padlet.com/veronica_black/ru8js56urtyk/wish/279214966 Significance of the Research veronica_black https://padlet.com/veronica_black/ru8js56urtyk/wish/279215063 The significance of this research would help to indicate how much of an impact teachers of color can have on achievement for students of color. It will delve into three streams.  First, Teacher Diversity in the Workforce.  Next, the impact of TOC on SOC achievement. This research would also like to note if there are any other idiosyncrasies in place that can impact teachers of color effectiveness.   Finally, Critical Race Theory (CRT), Culturally Responsive Teaching (CReT) and the notion of color-blindness in the classroom will be examined. ]]> 2018-09-09 23:34:39 UTC https://padlet.com/veronica_black/ru8js56urtyk/wish/279215063 Research Questions veronica_black https://padlet.com/veronica_black/ru8js56urtyk/wish/279215134 ·       How do we increase the minority presence for teachers of color in the classroom? How do we increase minority male teachers in the classroom? Are there other factors that predict student success from teachers of color? Do teachers of color significantly impact achievement for students of color?    What role does critical race theory play in the school setting? How can we replace color blindness with culturally responsive teaching?]]> 2018-09-09 23:35:23 UTC https://padlet.com/veronica_black/ru8js56urtyk/wish/279215134 Definition of Terms veronica_black https://padlet.com/veronica_black/ru8js56urtyk/wish/279215177 Teachers of color:  Refers to teachers who are not of European descent.
