There remains a significant achievement gap for students of color
across the K-12 spectrum. One area that needs increased and
immediate attention is how we recruit, prepare, and retain teachers
of color. This book asks: Why do teachers of color choose teaching?
What are their expectations for the students they will teach? How
do their past experiences shape their vision of teachers as role
models, mentors, and advocates for children of all races and
cultures? The authors detail how Minority Serving Institutions
(MSIs)-nearly 800 colleges and universities across the nation that
educate nearly 45% of all students of color-are preparing
culturally proficient teachers using new methods centered on
integrating culturally relevant pedagogy, creating a culture of
belonging through faculty engagement and cohort models, enriching
student teaching and clinical practice through residencies and
school-university partnerships, and working closely with families
and communities. Addressing timely and critical issues of
educational equity, For the Love of Teaching is a call to action
for all colleges and university to improve their teacher education
programs. Book Features: Provides case studies of MSIs that are
intentionally preparing culturally proficient teachers who are
skilled and experienced with diverse groups of students. Offers
lessons and approaches from four minority-serving colleges with
programs that attract and serve non-White teacher candidates.
Includes a broad overview of innovative practices in all aspects of
learning to teach, making it relevant to almost any teacher
education course. Focuses on serving the needs and maintaining the
commitment of candidates of color, while also developing their
academic skills and subject-specific content knowledge.
