Bibliography Note Includes bibliographical references and index.
Contents Note An opportunity gap explanatory framework -- White teacher, diverse urban school: relationships, expectations, and race matter -- even in the science classroom -- Black teacher, suburban White school: addressing cultural conflicts -- Black teachers, diverse urban school: recognizing assets in unexpected people and places -- White teachers learning to teach: roles and relevance of teacher preparation -- Opportunity-centered teaching.
Summary Note “The book centers on case studies that exemplify the challenges, pitfalls, and opportunities facing teachers in diverse classrooms. These case studies - of white and African American teachers working (and preparing to work) in urban and suburban settings - are presented amid more general discussions about race and teaching in contemporary schools. Informing these discussions and the cases themselves is their persistent attention to opportunity gaps that need to be fully grasped by teachers who aim to understand and promote the success of students of greatly varying backgrounds.” – Publisher.
