No. of bitstreams: 1 Ricardo Alexandre da Cruz.pdf: 740537 bytes, checksum: 7fe36e76220c773058cad6d6107b6c4a (MD5) Previous issue date: 2009-04-13 / Fundação Ford / This work approaches the trajectory of two black professors: José Rubino de Oliveira and Eunice A. J. Prudente. The first one was a saddler in Sorocaba and became a professor at Sao Paulo Law Academy in the 19th century, during the slavery period. The second one was born in the 20th century and, daughter of workers, became the first black woman to teach at Sao Paulo University Law School, besides occupying important positions. This way, the work aimed at identifying the strategies used by these subjects that allowed them to build a trajectory of educational and social ascension. In order to identify the strategies both teachers adopted, we tried to rebuild their trajectories, so the opus of the memorialists of Sao Paulo Academy, Almeida Nogueira (1907-1912) and Spencer Vampré (1977), were used in the case of José Rubino. Regarding professor Eunice, we used the interview. The data analysis revealed that both professor Eunice and professor José Rubino had a group of strategies like using the help of others, that is, the social capital, the public examination strategy, among others. When analyzing professor José Rubino s (in the 19th century) and professor Eunice s (in the 20th century) first steps, we realize that the strategies they used were strong enough for them to reach, at a certain point of their trajectories, a significant volume of cultural and social capital that provided them social ascension. The data also permitted us to realize that all strategies used by professor José Rubino (excepted by his entrance in the seminar) were used by professor Eunice Prudente, despite their trajectories being part of different contexts. This evidence is important because it suggests that some difficulties (revealed by the strategies used by the two subjects) faced by professor José Rubino in the past were similar to the ones faced by professor Eunice Prudente, more recently, as it is presented in this work / Este trabalho aborda a trajetória de dois professores negros: José Rubino de Oliveira e Eunice A. J. Prudente. O primeiro, de seleiro em Sorocaba tornou-se professor da Academia Jurídica de São Paulo, no século XIX, em pleno período escravocrata. A segunda, nascida no século XX, filha de operários, torna-se a primeira professora negra da Faculdade de Direito da Universidade de São Paulo, além de ocupar outros cargos de destaque. Nesse sentido, o trabalho objetivou identificar quais foram as estratégias empreendidas por esses sujeitos que lhes possibilitaram construir uma trajetória marcada por ascensão educacional e social. A fim de identificar quais foram as estratégias empregadas pelos dois professores, buscou-se reconstruir as suas trajetórias e para isso foram utilizadas, no caso do professor José Rubino, as obras dos memorialistas da Academia de São Paulo Almeida Nogueira (1907-1912) e Spencer Vampré (1977). Em relação à professora Eunice recorreu-se á entrevista. A análise dos dados revelou que tanto a professora Eunice como o professor José Rubino utilizaram um conjunto de estratégias como a de se valer da ajuda de terceiros, isto é, do capital social, a estratégia do concurso público, entre outras. Ao se analisar a trajetória inicial do professor José Rubino, ocorrida no século XIX, e da professora Eunice, ocorrida no século XX, constata-se que essas estratégias utilizadas por eles se mostraram suficientemente fortes, pois providenciaram que ambos chegassem a um certo momento de suas trajetórias de posse de um volume significativo de capital cultural e social que lhes renderam ascensão social. Os dados permitiram constatar também que todas as estratégias efetuadas pelo professor José Rubino (com exceção da entrada dele no seminário) foram utilizadas pela professora Eunice Prudente apesar de suas trajetórias estarem abrigadas em contextos diferentes. Essa constatação é importante porque sugere que algumas dificuldades (reveladas pelas estratégias utilizadas pelos dois sujeitos) enfrentadas pelo professor José Rubino, no passado, tem similaridade com as enfrentadas pela professora Eunice Prudente, no presente, como foi apresentado neste trabalho

Impact of Teacher and Student Ethnicity on Student Assessments

Barnes, Barbara (Principal) 05 1900 (has links)
The purpose of the study was to answer the questions: Do students show greater academic success in English language arts/reading as measured by the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) exam scores in secondary education when their teachers are the same ethinicity? Do students show greater academic success in math as measured by the TAKS exam scores in secondary education when their teachers are the same ethnicity? Minority students' success on the TAKS test was compared to the assessment scores of White students from the 2010-2011, 2011-2012, and 2012-13 school year in thre suburban school districts. This topic has been a subject of discussion since the late 10970s when Cardenas and Cardenas (1977) studied the achievement among minority students and their White peers. The conversation continued through authors such as Takei and Shouse (2008), Hays (2011), Ladson-Billings (2006), Dee (2003, 2005), and Brown (2006). To answer these research questions, a hierarchical multiple regression analysis was conducted on the data collected. Although the study verified the achievement gap between minority students and White students, the study indicated no consistent pattern corroborating that minority students were more successful when taught by teachers of the same ethnicity. In many cases, students learned better with teachers of a different ethnicity. Black students were successful with Hispanic or White teachers, Hispanic students were successful with Black or White teachers, and White students were successful with Black or Hispanic teachers. The TAKS assessment scores were the only data used to support this analysis.

Does limited English proficiency impact on schooling success for African learners? : a case study of a secondary school in Durban.

D'amant, Antoinette. January 1998 (has links)
With the move towards multicultural education in South Africa, previously "whites only" schools now face the challenge of educating learners from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. This study examined the extent to which limited English language proficiency impacts on schooling success for learners with Limited English Proficiency (L.E.P.). The study explored how these L.E.P. learners experienced the curriculum at a particular secondary school in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, and the extent to which this school responded to the challenges of diversity in its learner population. The study used a qualitative research methodology. The sample comprised 24 learners from Grade 10. The data collection techniques used were the focussed group interview, and document analysis of school documents. The findings indicate that the language issue is complex and cannot be explored as an isolated variable. Various other mediating factors interact to impact on schooling success for learners with limited English language proficiency. (Some of these factors are race; class; culture; school ethos; norms and value; the school curriculum; and the socio-economic background of learners). The results also reveal that, although the school policy and ethos at the school reflects a commitment to racial integration and a positive response to cultural diversity among its learners, assimilationist practices still prevail. Attempts to integrate elements of 'other' cultural wordviews have been largely token representation of the diverse cultures. The curriculum continues to reflect the dominant culture with little meaningful affirmation of learners' diverse cultural and linguistic roots. Limited English Proficiency (L.E.P.) learners often experience alienation and marginalisation from the curriculum and the culture of the school. Simply assimilating Limited English Proficiency learners into the curriculum as it is does not guarantee the equalisation of educational opportunities for all learners. Much restructuring of the curriculum is necessary to fulfil the goals of multicultural education. / Thesis (M.Ed.)-University of Natal, 1998.

Still Underrepresented: Minoritized Students With Gifts And Talents

Anne M Gray (9012401) 23 June 2020 (has links)
<p>To what extent do Black/African American (Black), Hispanic/Latinx (Latinx), and Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander (NHPI) students have access to being identified with gifts and talents? In places where they have access to identification, how equitably are they identified? And, to what extent are they missing from identification with gifts and talents due to lack of access or underidentification? This study used the Civil Rights Data Collection for the years 2000, 2011–2012, 2013–2014, and 2015–2016 to investigate underrepresentation of Black, Latinx, and NHPI youth with gifts and talents, nationally and by state. The data in these years were census data, meaning data from every child who attends public school is included. Data were also examined by Title I and Non-Title I school status and by locale (i.e., City, Suburb, Town, Rural) to determine how school poverty concentration and/or school locale affect identification of Black, Latinx, and NHPI youth. All states were analyzed for Black and Latinx youth, but due to the small NHPI student populations in some states this analysis was limited to a 20 state sample. Nationally, and in 37, 31, and all 20 states analyzed, respectively, lack of access to identification was not a major contributing factor to underrepresentation. The disparity in identification percentages between schools by Title I status showed 45% fewer Black students, 21% fewer Latinx students, and 15% fewer NHPI students were identified in Title I schools. Additionally, in every state and setting, Black, Latinx, and NHPI youth were underidentified with 92%, 92%, and 67%, respectively, of the equity ratios and 92%, 93%, and 61%, respectively, of the representation indices less than the minimum criterion of 0.80. In 2015-2016, there were 276,840 Black students with gifts and talents identified with an estimated 469,213 (62.89%) to 771,728 (73.60%) missing from identification; 588,891 Latinx students with gifts and talents identified with an estimated 658,544 (52.79%) to 1,164,363 (66.41%) missing from gifted identification; and among the 20 state sample, 6,594 NHPI students with gifts and talents identified with an estimated 7,236 (52.32%) to 9,253 (58.39%) missing from gifted identification.</p>

Black student experiences in english Quebec schools : a DisCrit composite counter-story of the special education placement process

Collins, Tya 12 1900 (has links)
Alors que l’on observe un déni du racisme systémique dans le discours politique dominant au Québec, les citoyen.nes et les immigrant.es racisé.es sont les cibles de traitements oppressifs dans diverses institutions à travers la province, y compris au sein des écoles (Pierre et Bosset, 2020). Cette situation concerne plus particulièrement les élèves noir.es qui ont témoigné avoir subi des expériences de racisme dans les établissements d'enseignement (CDPDJ, 2011; Collins et Magnan, 2018; Louis, 2020). Face au déni du racisme caractéristique du discours dominant, une étude empirique, dans une perspective intersectionnelle et critique, s’avère nécessaire afin d’analyser les expériences scolaires des élèves noir.es, au regard des expériences de racisme vécues et en lien avec leur portrait socio-éducatif préoccupant (Caldas et al., 2009; Livingstone & Weinfeld, 2017). Eu égard à la surreprésentation des jeunes Noir.es en adaptation scolaire (Mc Andrew et Ledent, 2008), cette étude documente plus spécifiquement les expériences des élèves noir.es dans les écoles anglophones du Québec tout au long du processus de classement. Il s’agit également d’analyser les obstacles structurels auxquels ces élèves font face. Cette recherche prend appui sur le cadre théorique « Discrit » (Annamma et al, 2016) qui met en évidence l’interrelation entre le capacitisme et le racisme, en analysant comment l’articulation entre ces deux dimensions contribue au maintien de systèmes éducatifs inéquitables. De même, une approche méthodologique qualitative critique a été privilégiée, à travers le recours à la méthode du contre-récit (Solorzano & Yosso, 2002). Les entretiens - menés auprès de 21 intervenant.es scolaires et de 20 élèves du secondaire - ainsi que l’analyse des dossiers scolaires de ces derniers, ont principalement fait ressortir l’existence d’un décalage entre les discours des intervenant.es relatifs à leurs pratiques - perçues généralement comme inclusives, bienveillantes et bénéfiques pour les élèves - et les expériences relatées par la plupart des élèves. La majorité des élèves noir.es interrogé.es se trouvait dans l’impossibilité de participer pleinement au processus menant à leur classement en adaptation scolaire, n’ayant pas connaissance des codes et des étiquettes qui leur avaient été attribuées, ni des mesures de soutien existantes. Ils (Elles) se sentaient confronté.es à des environnements d’apprentissage perçus comme malveillants et insécures, à la négligence scolaire ainsi qu'à des formes sévères de discipline. Les résultats de l’étude suggèrent que les processus de classement en adaptation scolaire sont entachés de pratiques et de politiques racistes et capacitistes envers les enfants noir.es dont les droits éducatifs ne sont pas pleinement respectés -ces derniers étant traités comme des adultes, médicalisés et criminalisés. / While systemic racism continues to be denied in dominant political discourse in Quebec, racialized citizens and immigrants are the targets of oppressive treatment in various institutions across the province, including schools (Pierre & Bosset, 2020). This situation is particularly salient for Black students who have reported various manifestations of anti-Black racism in educational institutions (CDPDJ, 2011; Collins & Magnan, 2018; Louis, 2020). These experiences in conjunction with their concerning socio-educational portrait (Caldas et al., 2009; Livingstone & Weinfeld, 2017) and the predominant race and racism denial discourse incite a critical intersectional investigation of their school experiences. Specifically in light of their overrepresentation in special education (Mc Andrew & Ledent, 2008), this study documents Black student experiences in Quebec English schools throughout the special education placement process, and analyzes the systemic and structural barriers they encounter. A DisCrit theoretical framework guided the inquiry, as it addresses the interrelationship of ableism and racism, and how they work in tandem to maintain systems of inequity (Annamma et al., 2016). Similarly, a critical qualitative methodological approach was employed, using a counter-story method (Solorzano & Yosso, 2002). Following the analysis of interviews with 21 school board members and 20 high school students, as well as their student files, the main results showed that while school board personnel perceived most of their practices as inclusive, benevolent, and beneficial to students, the majority of the reported student experiences do not coincide. Throughout the special education placement process, Black students were prevented from accessing information and fully participating in their own special education placement processes, as the majority were unaware of the codes and labels they had been attributed, and the support measures available to them. They were exposed to perceived unwelcoming and unsafe environments, academic neglect, as well as harsh forms of discipline. The analysis of the results suggests that special education placement processes are tainted by anti-Black and ableist practices and policies that adultify, medicalized and criminalize the behaviors of Black children, while failing to fully uphold their educational rights.
