Recruiting Minority Classroom Teachers by Denise A. Alston Pdf
An explanation of the impending shortage of minority teachers and suggestions for increasing the supply of minority teachers compose the crux of this document. The following specific actions may be taken by local school districts, colleges of teacher education, teacher certification boards, and teacher recruitment and selection offices to ensure that a highly talented cadre of minorities will choose teaching over other professions: (1) gather information about gender and minority distribution of students enrolled in colleges of education, and of teachers; (2) organize task forces that focus uniquely on minority teacher recruitment; (3) develop strategies to expand the number of target groups from which to recruit teachers; (4) lobby for fiscal support to improve minority participation in the teacher recruitment effort and expand financial assistance packages; (5) increase financial support for schools that minorities attend; and (6) develop a pool of oncall minority professionals who can be quickly brought into teaching. An appendix lists suggested recruitment programs and practices with regard to policy review and constituency building, data-gathering activities, early recruitment/pipeline improvement, program-entry incentives, retention to successful licensure, and recruitment from alternative pools.

Diversifying the Teacher Workforce by Christine E. Sleeter,La Vonne I. Neal,Kevin K. Kumashiro Pdf
Diversifying the Teacher Workforce critically examines efforts to diversify the teaching force and narrow the demographic gap between who teaches and who populates U.S. classrooms. While the demographic gap is often invoked to provide a needed rationale for preparing all teachers, and especially White teachers, to work with students of color, it is far less often invoked in an effort to examine why the teaching force remains predominantly White in the first place. Based on work the National Association for Multicultural Education is engaged in on this phenomenon, this edited collection brings together leading scholars to look closely at this problem. They examine why the teaching force is predominantly White from historical as well as contemporary perspectives, showcase and report available data on a variety of ways this problem is being tackled at the pre-service and teacher credentialing levels, and examine how a diverse and high-quality teaching force can be retained and thrive. This book is an essential resource for any educator interested in exploring race within the context of today’s urban schools.
