Description

Ability Profiling and School Failure, Second Edition, provides a deep look into the social and contextual forces that define academic ability and disability. This book examines how these external factors influence how the academic underachievement of minority students is perceived by educators and society. 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. Through Jay's story, researcher and teacher-educator Kathleen Collins illustrates how students can be excluded from essential science and literacy discourses within their own classrooms. This second edition offers updated insights for educators, researchers, and students interested in how classroom environments impact the perception of student competence.
