Description

Ability Profiling and School Failure, Second Edition, provides an in-depth look at the social and contextual forces that shape how academic ability and disability are perceived. Published by Routledge, this book examines how these forces influence the perception of academic underachievement, particularly among minority students. At the center of this work is the case study of Jay, a competent fifth-grade African American boy living in a predominantly white, rural community. The text explores his struggle to participate in science and literacy discourses within his classroom. Researcher and teacher-educator Kathleen Collins uses this narrative to examine the systemic ways students can be excluded from academic success despite their inherent competence.
