Shika Laverne Myrickes – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Schools in the United States average an annual teacher turnover of 16%, with half of all teachers who change jobs also leaving the profession.

Martin, Jennifer L.; Magoulias, Christie M. Hill; Akbar, N. J.; Rebelsky, Dayle – Journal of Urban Learning, Teaching, and Research, 2022
In this pilot study, we examine the realities of differential funding structures across the US, which disproportionately disadvantage historically marginalized communities (Black and Brown students) and students living in poverty, contributing to an intractable opportunity gap. Prior research indicates that equitable funding can, in fact, decrease…

Noel, Jana – Teacher Educator, 2016
Traditional campus-based teacher education programs, located on college or university campuses, have been criticized for being removed from the "real world" of community life, and a number of programs have moved directly into urban communities in order for preservice teachers to become immersed in the life of the community. This article…

Posey-Maddox, Linn – Educational Forum, 2016
This article builds a case for nuanced conceptualizations of "urban" and "-suburban" educational contexts and issues. The author analyzes data across two studies--one of upper-middle-class White parents with children in Chicago public schools, and the other of Black low-income and working-class parents who moved from Chicago to…

Posey-Maddox, Linn – Journal of Education Policy, 2016
Given recent budgetary gaps in public education, many civic and educational leaders have relied upon private sources of funding for US public schools, including funds raised by parents. Yet parents' role as economic actors in public education has been largely unexplored. Drawing from a qualitative study of parent engagement, fundraising, and…

Hammerness, Karen; Matsko, Kavita Kapadia – Urban Education, 2013
Reviews of research evaluating the impact of beginning teacher induction suggest that the mixed results may be due to the fact that the programs do not fully address school context. We examine how one induction program for urban teachers explicitly addresses teachers' specific schools and students to illustrate how context becomes the…

Stovall, David – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2013
Because the dynamics of race are wrongly ignored in a current shroud of post-racialism (i.e. re-election of Barack Obama as president of the USA, shifting racial demographics in the USA, etc.), there are still communities in the USA and throughout the world that experience the damaging effects of racism entangled with the realities of class. Many…

Bang, Megan; Marin, Ananda; Faber, Lori; Suzukovich, Eli S., III – Urban Education, 2013
Indigenous people are significantly underrepresented in the fields of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).
