Preferred term

critical race theory, teacher education, and diversity  

Definition

  • Because of the rapid diversification of student populations, coupled with continuing inequities in how well schools serve students of color, immigrant students, and students from low-income backgrounds, teacher education programs have increasingly worked to prepare teachers to teach diverse students well. Critical race theory, while having the potential to guide these efforts, also sheds light on the superficiality of many of them.
