According to Gordon and Bridglall, the ability to learn is more of
a developed human capacity than a fixed aptitude with which one is
born. They argue that the emergence of academic ability is
associated with exposure to specialized cultures that privilege the
attitudes, knowledge, and skills that schools reward. Children who
are born to and raised in these cultures tend to do well in school,
while those who are not exposed to such cultures tend seldom rise
to high levels of academic achievement. Through a collection of
interesting essays, Affirmative Development: Cultivating Academic
Ability attempts to address how we can deliberately develop
academic ability in those children who are not raised under
conditions that predispose them to develop high levels of academic
ability.
