Renowned scholar and educator Angela Valenzuela, together with an impressive roster of contributors, provides a critical framework for educating culturally responsive teachers. They examine the knowledge, skills, and predispositions required for higher education institutions to create curricula for educating Latino\/a children, children of color, and language-minority youth. Growing Critically Conscious Teachers illuminates why growing our own teachers makes sense as an approach for not only addressing the achievement gap, but for also enhancing the well-being of our communities as a whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBook Features:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e * A community-based, university- and district-connected partnership model that fosters students’ critical consciousness.\u003cbr\u003e * A framework for participatory action research (PAR) within teacher preparation that promotes community and societal transformation.\u003cbr\u003e * A curriculum premised on sociocultural and sociopolitical awareness.\u003cbr\u003e * The wisdom, experiences, and lessons learned from educators who have been change agents in their own schools, communities, and college classrooms across the country.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Teachers College Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48921974669549,"sku":"TCP6836","price":30.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0778\/0797\/6685\/files\/9780807756836.jpg?v=1761426346","url":"https:\/\/qepbooks.com\/products\/growing-critically-conscious-teachers-a-social-justice-curriculum-for-educators-of-latino-a-youth","provider":"QEP Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
