dc.description.abstract | By 2035 students of color, specifically Blacks and Hispanics, are predicted to be the majority of students in U.S. schools, and by 2050, they will represent 62% of the public school population (NCES, 2014). Teacher preparation programs are challenged by policymakers to demonstrate that they are preparing teachers to positively impact K-12 student academic achievement, and close the opportunity and achievement gaps. | |
