The Middle School Child's Perceptions of Caring Teachers.
Hayes, Charles B.; And Others
American Journal of Education, v103 n1 p1-19 Nov 1994
Presents perceptions of sixth-grade students, from ethnically diverse New York City schools, of teacher behaviors that they interpret as caring. An ethnographic technique of open-ended written responses indicates that demographic differences exist and show that students' perceptions of caring differ by ethnicity and sex. Implications for further research are discussed. (GLR)
