Exploring The Relationships Between White Racial Consciousness, Feminist Identity Development And Family Environment For White Undergraduate Women, Kara E. Wolff
Dissertations
Although the literature has emphasized the importance of understanding between White racial consciousness, feminist identity development and family environment.

National standards highlight the need to teach argumentation, yet also recognize the urgent demand for educational equity of all students.
The purpose of this research was to narrow the gap dividing argumentation studies from other science discourse research. …
