Böcker av Christine E. Sleeter

This compelling book conceptualizes Ethnic Studies not only as a vehicle to transform and revitalize the school curriculum but also as a way to reinvent teaching. Drawing on Sleeter's research review on the impact of Ethnic Studies, the authors show how the traditional curriculum's Eurocentric view of the world affects diverse student populations.

How can teachers learn to teach rich, academically rigorous multicultural curricula under standardization constraints? This book contrasts key curricular assumptions with those of multicultural education, explaining the aspects they share as well as the conceptual and political differences between them.
