Abstract:
An Educator’s Guide to Working with African American Students is the highly anticipated book from Dr. Chance W. Lewis that provides educators with pertinent and practical information on how to promote academic achievement. This book speaks directly to educators (i.e., teachers, administrators, counselors, etc.) to assist in their understanding of what works in the classroom. In this book, you will discover how to: self-reflect to improve the educational climate for African American students; connect with African American students in the academic setting; create the most effective types of homework that improve performance; improve standardized test scores; build an expectation of college; and provide the most valuable education needed for the real-world.
