Increasing the Number of Latino and Navajo Teachers in Hard-to-Staff Schools.
Becket, Diane R.
Journal of Teacher Education, v49 n3 p196-205 May-Jun 1998
Examined the development of two teacher education programs designed to increase the number of quality minority teachers in Latino neighborhood schools and on the Navajo reservation. Review of teacher education literature and analysis of interviews with program staff, archival records, and program documentation indicated that these two nontraditional programs were of high quality and attracted minority students into teaching.
