Khattri, Nidhi; Riley, Kevin W.; Kane, Michael B.
Journal of Research in Rural Education, v13 n2 p79-100 Fall 1997
Review of recent educational research compares academic outcomes of poor rural students and poor urban students and explores rural community characteristics and rural school characteristics that may affect students' opportunity to learn. Information specifically on poor rural students, schools, and communities is sketchy, unfocused, and not comparable across studies. Preliminary conclusions and research recommendations are offered. Contains 59 references. (SV)
