Depoliticizing Multicultural Education: The Return to Normalcy in a Predominantly White High School.
DiPardo, Anne; Fehn, Bruce
Theory and Research in Social Education, v28 n2 p170-92 Spr 2000
Examines how teachers at a predominantly white, middle-class high school enacted multicultural education into the course, "Cultural Issues." Explores course examples which suggest that micro-political contexts of school and community-shaped curriculum and instruction are important, but in unacknowledged ways. Argues that attention must be paid to the influence of contextual norms. (CMK)
