Culturally Collaborative Teaching: A Path Toward Black Student Learning, J. Love Benton

Antioch University Full-Text Dissertations & Theses

Inservice teachers’ influence and power are vital components for academic success among Black children.

Although a large number of EPPs find value in the self-study and external review that come with the national accreditation process, the process itself can be daunting and time-consuming. Many look to the literature or to the accreditation experiences provided by other institutions as a means to assist their own accreditation journey. The purpose of this article is to discuss one regional, comprehensive EPP’s experiences with national accreditation, …
