African American Education (Advances in Education in Diverse Communities: Research Policy and Praxis) (Advances in Education in Diverse Communities: Research Policy and Praxis)

This volume considers African American education in the new millennium through the lens of the Chicago School Tradition, at the University of Chicago. The Chicago School Tradition, among other emphases, stressed the optimistic view that all children who do not have serious physical or emotional impairments can do well in school, if provided access to effective teachers, sufficient resources and adequate opportunities to learn.
