Sunshine, or Twilight?: School Administration Interpretation of Florida's Multicultural Education Standards

This study involves an analysis of policy interpretation at the level of local schools, regarding Florida's multicultural education standards. Such middle-level analysis is new; most prior work examined (state) governmental drafting of multicultural policy, or classroom activities by individual teachers. This study is timely, because diversity is growing in U.S. schools, and because this area may soon be added to Florida's standard exam, the FCAT. / A Dissertation submitted to the Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of
Philosophy. / Spring Semester, 2008. / April 9, 2008. / Multicultural Education, School Level Policy / Includes bibliographical references. / Jeffrey S. Brooks, Professor Directing Dissertation; Isaac Eberstein, Outside Committee Member; Jeffrey Milligan, Committee Member; Sande Milton, Committee Member.
