Abstract
|
Her scholarship is focused on the examination of pedagogical excellence and pedagogical hegemony, or the confluence of ideology and practices that either promote educational excellence for African American children or limits their opportunities to excel, particularly in the elementary literacy classroom.
This dissertation presents a conception of pedagogical excellence for African American learners as a way to help teachers and teacher educators understand the comprehensive nature of good teaching for Black children in America. It builds on the effective pedagogy literature as well as research on effective Black educators, and is grounded in the cultural knowledge and perspectives of a group of community-nominated, accomplished African American educators
