Multicultural strategies for education and social change

About this book

"This book describes a different approach to teacher education designed to create "carriers of the torch"--Teachers who have a sense of efficacy and the attitudes, dispositions, and skills necessary to teach students from diverse racial, ethnic, and linguistic backgrounds. Through her examination of teacher change and teacher education in two countries - the United States and South Africa - the author proposes new ways to prepare teachers for a rapidly changing global society."--Jacket.
