Book Synopsis Mentoring African American Males by : William Ross
Download or read book Mentoring African American Males written by William Ross and published by Information Age Publishing. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mentoring African American Males provides important black male research and student performance data to guide the efforts of those who accept the enormous task of standing in the gap to increase black male achievement. Dr. Ross provides guidance for individuals and institutions embracing the important role of developing mentoring programs or serving as a mentor to youth. However, what makes Dr. Ross' work such a critically important book for any individual or institution considering such a role is its insight into the social-cultural framework within which mentoring must occur at every level from elementary school through college. Equally insightful is the structure that such programs must take in response to the socio-cultural constructs of the families, communities, and institutions where they will occur. There are far more quantitative studies than qualitative on the topic of mentoring. This text addresses that discrepancy and provides the results of several qualitative studies on African American males. There is hardly any that offer a mixed method perspective that combine quantitative and qualitative methodological approaches. This text reports on the research results that are qualitative in nature in addition to some that are from a quantitative and mixed method approach.

Book excerpt: As education continues to take great strides to become more inclusive and understanding of diverse students and cultures, teaching practices and methods for learning are an essential part of the puzzle and must be addressed to create culturally responsive educational experiences.

The Research Anthology on Culturally Responsive Teaching and Learning displays the best practices and lessons learned for culturally responsive teaching and learning across different types of institutions, classroom subjects, and with different types of students from diverse cultural backgrounds. The chapters focus on culturally responsive practices and how these methods for teaching can impact student success, empowerment, and cultural competence. This book is essential in understanding cultural diversity and inequity in education as well as the ways to address it.

He, too, may not experience a Black male teacher and in some cases an athletic coach either. What has happened to the Black male population? Why are so many Black male students gone missing in classrooms and what has happened to them after high school? In this book the authors write together to capture your attention on how to captivate and encourage the average Black male from rural and inner city school districts. This book is written off of experience and of good conscience of how we must raise up the Black male and inspire him to want to do better but most of all be better. How do we go from being distant with the Black male to establishing a mentoring relationship that is lasting and trusting? The authors will open your eyes to a new journey of how to make communities strong again. Connection to the classroom and to the community is the start to any child's trust but it goes deeper with the Black male in schools today. They need more from you and after reading this book, you will know exactly where to begin and how to continue your new established relationship with one another. It is a work in progress but most definitely one that is most needed for our ever-so-changing global society. Every Child Needs A Mentor!

This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This insightful book gives suggestions on increasing academic rigor of the middle school male student, increasing consistent student attendance, and decreasing discipline referrals. This book gives situational examples and possible suggestions to help single parents, teachers, administrators, board members, and the male student to overcome obstacles to be successful. Washington believes that bonding should initially take place early in the relationship of the teacher to student and student to teacher. Much like a client coming to a store for specific items, the store owner has to get to know his customer in order to effectively serve this individual for continued customer satisfaction. The same principles apply for teachers getting to know their students. Oftentimes, this notion is not developed because of constant new initiatives being introduced to teachers without lasting results. Hence, mentoring of students can eliminate many problems schools face. Using the suggestions offered in this book will cause increase academic performance and attendance, while decreasing discipline referrals tremendously.
