Future Florida Black Teachers: A Vanishing Breed.
Mercer, Walter A.
Negro Educational Review, v33 n3-4 p135-39 Jul-Oct 1982
The requirement of higher scores on standardized tests for admission to colleges and universities and to teacher education programs discriminates against Blacks, who have less advantaged backgrounds than Whites. This requirement and poor Black performance on the Florida Teacher Certification Examination may diminish the pool of Black teachers in Florida. (Author/MJL)
