"Drawing on Christine Sleeter's review of research on the academic and social impact of ethnic studies commissioned by the National Education Association, this book will examine the value and forms of teaching and researching ethnic studies. The book employs a diverse conceptual framework, including critical pedagogy, anti-racism, Afrocentrism, Indigeneity, youth participatory action research, and critical multicultural education. The book provides cases of classroom teachers to 'illustrate what such conceptual framework look like when enacted in the classroom, as well as tensions that spring from them within school bureaucracies driven by neoliberalism.' Sleeter and Zavala will also outline ways to conduct research for 'investigating both learning and broader impacts of ethnic research used for liberatory ends'"--

Not everyone has a knack for Mathematics and several people simply give up when the teacher begins adding letters into the equations. However, there are actually some solid uses for Algebra 2 other than keeping headache medicine manufacturers in business. Building on the ideas and core concepts learned in basic Algebra, the intermediate Algebra 2 introduces abstract thinking. Students learn how to identify likenesses and evaluate equations based on their characteristics. This information is useful for higher mathematical pursuits and is also helpful for general life. The analytic approach to problem solving is essential in both employment situations and personal relationships.
