Standards and accountability has succeeded in bringing greater attention to disparities in student achievement. Little attention has been given to what it takes to create conditions in schools that will make achievement for all students more likely.
- How do we place equity at the center of education reform?
- How do we support and cultivate effective teaching in schools?
This presentation will describe principles and practices that have proven effective in meeting the needs of a wide variety of learners. It will also explore how schools can develop effective partnerships with parents and community groups to further efforts to raise achievement.
Pedro Noguera has published over one hundred and fifty research articles, monographs and research reports on topics such as: urban school reform, conditions that promote student achievement, preventing youth violence, the potential impact of school choice and vouchers on urban public schools, and race and ethnic relations in American society.
