Countering Classroom Discrimination.
Garcia, Ricardo L.
Theory into Practice, v23 n2 p104-09 Spr 1984
This article examines classroom discrimination and finds that students develop biases from the group they belong in and through previous experiences. To counter such stereotypes, teachers must examine their own attitudes and those of their students. Heterogeneous group activities where students can work together are suggested. (DF)
