About the book

"Making School Count shows how the disproportionate under-achievement of African American students results from inappropriate teaching strategies. The authors report on a four-year collaborative effort among teachers, university professors and graduate students to promote success among "low-achieving" African American students by using academically and culturally appropriate teaching strategies." "The book does two things. It presents a thorough account of one White teacher's efforts as she tries to improve the motivational and learning climate of her classroom. The book is also a primer for teachers who aim to be researchers in their own classrooms and it is an action research case study - a study of the collaboration between a university and a school in an attempt to bring about educational change from the ground up."--Jacket.
