Mexican American Students and Classroom Interaction: An Overview and Critique.
Losey, Kay M.
Review of Educational Research, v65 n3 p283-318 Fall 1995
Studies of Mexican American students and classroom interaction are reviewed and critiqued from a perspective based on the work of Lev Vygotsky. Research suggests that Mexican American student involvement can be promoted through collaborative learning techniques, acceptance of student language use, and the use of material related to student interests.
