Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1984. How to respond to ethnic diversity is a question of major importance for teachers. The multi-ethnic school is only one aspect of a multi-ethnic society, and the problems and complexities teachers face have far-reaching implications. Attention has turned from fitting minority ethnic groups into existing education systems to achieving equality in a multi-ethnic society, with consequent questions about and changes in the practice of teaching. This book guides the reader through the complexities of changes in the field of race and education, examining developments in both policy and practice. It looks at the radical answers which were developing within a number of national education systems - in Britain, Australia, Canada, the US and elsewhere, and at the teachers’ practical responses to the pressing problems.
Book Synopsis Race, Class and Education (RLE Edu L) by : Len Barton
Download or read book Race, Class and Education (RLE Edu L) written by Len Barton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-04 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One problem which continues to absorb social scientists is the way in which so much social deprivation stems from racial or class status. The discussion in this book is developed in two ways: firstly, careful attention is given to an examination of the way minority groups create and maintain collective identities and action. Secondly, the relationship between this movement and such topics as racism in schools, schooling, unemployment and West Indian involvement in sporting rather than academic activities is analysed, together with the nature of the educational experience of different class and gender groups.

Book Synopsis Racial Inequality in Education by : Barry Troyna
Download or read book Racial Inequality in Education written by Barry Troyna and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2012-04-27 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The education system should be in the forefront of the battle to combat racial inequality. The contributors to this book, however, argue that, far from reducing racial inequality, the education system in the UK systematically generates, maintains and reproduces it. Through careful consideration of the complex and pervasive nature of racism (and the practices it gives rise to) the contributors draw attention to the failure of the contemporaneous multicultural education theories and policies. The contributors’ concerns are with: the role of the state in sustaining and legitimating racial inequalities in education; black students’ experiences of racism in schools and post-school training schemes; and proposals for the realization of genuine and effective antiracist education principles.

Book Synopsis Racism, Education and the State by : Barry Troyna
Download or read book Racism, Education and the State written by Barry Troyna and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multicultural education is a major concern throughout the world. In the UK many local education authorities have implemented curricula which stress the multicultural nature of the world and which pay some attention to the cultural tradition of minority groups. This book argues that this approach is inadequate. It reviews education policies from the 1960s to the mid 1980s and argues that the playing down of racism in education and avoidance of any clear policy was in fact misguided and has not resulted in equality of opportunity for all students, as was hoped. The authors argue instead that clear policies to counter racism should be formulated and should be linked to more broadly conceived equal opportunity programmes - in short, that these policies cannot be effective if they fail to consider also inequalities of gender and class.

Book Synopsis Educability and Group Differences by : Arthur Jensen
Download or read book Educability and Group Differences written by Arthur Jensen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-04 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jensen is a controversial figure, largely for his conclusions based on his and other research regarding the causes of race based differences in intelligence and in this book he develops more fully the argument he formulated in his controversial Harvard Education Review article ‘How Much Can We Boost IQ and Scholastic Achievement?’. In a wide-ranging survey of the evidence he argues that measured IQ reveals a strong hereditary component and he argues that the system of education which assumes an almost wholly environmentalist view of the causes of group differences capitalizes on a relatively narrow category of human abilities. Since its original publication the controversy surrounding Jensen’s ideas has continued as successive generations of psychologists, scientists and policy-makers have grappled with the same issues.
Book Synopsis Racism in Children's Lives by : Barry Troyna
Download or read book Racism in Children's Lives written by Barry Troyna and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1992. Both teachers and the general public have traditionally been unwilling to acknowledge that concepts of ‘race’ might play a part in the lives of primary school children. For this book the authors spent a term in each of three mainly white primary schools. They talked to black and white pupils individually and in small groups about issues, not necessarily of ‘race’, which the children themselves saw as important. From these conversations they present a fascinating study of how ‘race’ emerges for young children as a plausible explanatory framework for incidents in their everyday lives. The final picture is both disturbing in its demonstration of how significant racism is and hopeful in showing how frequently anti-racist attitudes exist even in the thinking of children who engage in racist behaviour. A final chapter looks at how school policy can combat racism and build on these positive elements.
