When Critical Multiculturalism Meets Mathematics - A Mixed Methods Study of Professional Development and Teacher Identity... When Critical Multiculturalism Meets Mathematics - A Mixed Methods Study of Professional Development and Teacher Identity (Hardcover)
Patricia L. Marshall, Jessica T Decuir-Gunby, Allison W Mcculloch
R1,712 Discovery Miles 17 120 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

When Critical Multiculturalism Meets Mathematics details the development and outcomes of a teacher professional development project that merged multiculturalism and mathematics. In six compact chapters the authors describe the impetus for their multi-year project and present rich case studies of nine teacher participants. The cases stand alone as compelling reading, yet Marshall et al. extend beyond their distinctiveness to explain the statistical data related to the project's broader impact. Emphasizing both qualitative and quantitative findings makes this book ideal for novice researchers interested in mixed method study. Likewise, the authors unveil the anatomy and a few complexities of conducting research in the real world contexts of schools including participant recruitment and resolution of unanticipated matters that can arise within research teams. A unique twist in the final chapter is Marshall et al.'s critique of their own missteps as researchers, which are used skillfully and unobtrusively to proffer tips for future studies. They conclude by theorizing affirmed intersectionality, identified as the critical element that facilitated teachers' recognition and acceptance of the compatibility between the study's two components.

R1,302 Discovery Miles 13 020 Ships in 9 - 15 working days

Despite the growing urgency for Critical Race Theory (CRT) in the field of education, the "how" of this theoretical framework can often be overlooked.

Featuring scholars from a range of disciplines, the chapters showcase how various researchers synthesize different methods-including qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods, and historical and archival research-with CRT to explore issues of equity and access in the field of education. Scholars discuss their current research approaches using CRT and present new models of conducting research within a CRT framework, offering a valuable contribution to ongoing methodological debates. Researchers across different levels of expertise will find the articulations of CRT and methods insightful and compelling.
