Explaining Academic Failure In The United States And Laos: Interpreting The Voices Of Hmong American And Hmong Lao Students, Leena Her
Leena N. Her
Claims about minority students' academic potentials are often used to explain the achievement gap between poor and minority students and their white counterparts in the United States. Alternatively, Professor Leena Her argues that as cultural citizens of the United States, ethnic minority students’ explanation of failure in the U.S. reveal much more about the culture and democratic ideology of the United States.

Leena N. Her
The high-stakes testing climate and the growing immigrant and English language-learning population have changed the face of teaching and learning in today's high schools.
