About This Book
"Mathematics Success and Failure Among African-American Youth goes beyond the conventional explanations of ability, socioeconomic status, differential treatment, and biased curricula to consider the effects of history, community, and peers - and the individual agency that allows some students to succeed despite these influences.".
"This book will be useful and informative to many groups: mathematics education researchers, education researchers interested in the social context of learning and teaching, policymakers, preservice and in-service teachers, students, parents, and community advocates.
It will also be of interest to readers concerned with multicultural education, cross-cultural studies of mathematics learning, sociology of education, Black studies, and issues of underrepresentation in science and mathematics."--BOOK JACKET.
