Racial and Ethnic Achievement Gap Trends: Reversing the Progress Toward Equity?
Lee, Jaekyung
Educational Researcher, v31 n1 p3-12 Jan-Feb 2002
Examines Black-White and Hispanic-White achievement gap trends over 30 years, identifying key factors contributing to bifurcated patterns in achievement gaps. While conventional measures of socioeconomic status, family conditions, youth culture, student behavior, and schooling might account for some of the trends for a limited time period or a specific group, they do not fully capture the variations.
