Doing Multicultural Education for Achievement and Equity, a
hands-on, reader-friendly multicultural education textbook,
actively engages education students in critical reflection and
self-examination as they prepare to teach in increasingly diverse
classrooms. In this engaging text, Carl A. Grant and Christine E.
Sleeter, two of the most eminent scholars of multicultural teacher
education, help pre-service teachers develop the tools they will
need to learn about their students and their students communities
and contexts, about themselves, and about the social relations in
which schools are embedded. Doing Multicultural Education for
Achievement and Equity challenges readers to take a truly active
and ongoing role in promoting equity within education and helps to
guide them in becoming highly qualified and fantastic teachers.
