An Examination Of The Impediments To Implementing Student-Centered Teaching Methods In Public Schools, Nicole R H Adewale, Robert L. Bloch, Garry D. Gibbs

In education, traditional methods have long relied upon static textbooks and blackboards to impart knowledge to students.

We sought to uncover barriers and potential solutions to this problem by elevating the voices of educators, from classroom teachers to building and district administrators, at a predominantly African-American suburban secondary school in the Midwest.
We designed a qualitative research study to answer a single yet layered research question: What impedes Black students from experiencing and …
