Multicultural Strategies for Education And Social Change Carriers of the Torch in the United States And South Africa

This book describes a different approach to teacher education designed to create "carriers of the torch"--teachers who have a sense of efficacy and the attitudes, dispositions, and skills necessary to teach students from diverse racial, ethnic, and linguistic backgrounds. Through her examination of teacher change and teacher education in two countries--the United States and South Africa--the author proposes new ways to prepare teachers for a rapidly changing global society.Ball, Arnetha F. is the author of 'Multicultural Strategies for Education And Social Change Carriers of the Torch in the United States And South Africa', published 2006 under ISBN 9780807746691 and ISBN 080774669X.
