Promoting Positive Racial Teacher-student Classroom Relationships Derrick L. Campbell

Most schools do not recognize the impact that our cultural differences have on student achievement.  The Promoting Positive Racial Teacher-Student Classroom Relationships book outlines the entire process that will increase student achievement by reducing student discipline. The book includes all research theories and administrator and teacher leadership qualities necessary to increase school effectiveness. Findings from this study contain organizational, teacher, and student insights concerning thinking and behavior that lead to classroom conflicts between teachers and minority students. Teachers developed strategies that promoted social and educational processes that lead to positive racial relationships between White teachers and minority Hispanic and Black students, which decreased student discipline for minority students and increased minority student achievement.
