Week 4b Readings

Week 4b Readings

The focus of this class is on diversity and culturally-relevant instruction. I've split it up into two categories - factors that contribute to academic inequity and interventions to close the gap. For your project pairs, have one partner do the readings and readingQs for part 1 and the other part 2. Everyone reads the first two articles.
