ABOUT THIS BOOK

Winner of the 2018 AERA Division K Exemplary Research in Teaching and Teacher Education Award

The first of its kind, Teacher Education across Minority-Serving Institutions brings together innovative work from the family of institutions known as minority-serving institutions: Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Tribal Colleges and Universities, Hispanic Serving Institutions, and Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions. The book moves beyond a singular focus on teacher racial diversity that has characterized scholarship and policy work in this area. Instead, it pushes for scholars to consider that racial diversity in teacher education is not simply an end in itself but is, a means to accomplish other goals, such as developing justice-oriented and asset-based pedagogies.

REVIEWS

"Petchauer and Mawhinney's Teacher Education across MSIs is the first book to include the voices of MSI scholars on the topic of teacher education at MSIs. These institutions are vital to ensuring a diverse teaching force in the U.S."

— Marybeth Gasman, Professor, University of Pennsylvania and Director, Penn Center for Minority Serving Institutions

“With wide-ranging implications for higher education policy, Teacher Education across Minority Serving Institutions is honest and optimistic about transforming teaching practice through MSI teacher prep programs. Its grounded perspectives, intelligent analyses, and compelling narratives make this book an insightful read and a valuable contribution to higher education literature.”

— Ivory Toldson, Ph.D., Editor-in-Chief, The Journal of Negro Education and Former Director, White House Initiative on HBCUs
