Ethnic Identity within a Larger Culture

222
Adolescents from ethnic minority backgrounds face a multifaceted journey in forming their identities, shaped by the intersections of cultural expectations and personal exploration. For these adolescents, identity formation involves not only typical developmental challenges but also navigating the perceptions and attitudes of the majority culture. As they grow, adolescents in ethnic minority groups often become increasingly aware of stereotypes, social biases, and discrimination, all of which...

Cognitive Development During Adolescence

503
During adolescence, individuals experience significant cognitive development that enhances their understanding of others' emotions and thoughts, known as cognitive empathy. This period is marked by an increased ability to adapt to others' perspectives and a more nuanced understanding of others' mental states, a skill that is foundational for social problem-solving and conflict avoidance. The development of cognitive empathy relies heavily on the theory of mind — the...

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

5.7K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Revisionist Views of Adolescent and Adult Cognition01:24

Revisionist Views of Adolescent and Adult Cognition

286
A revisionist approach to Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development has brought new insights that challenge and reinterpret his established ideas. Piaget proposed that the formal operational stage, emerging in adolescence, represents the culmination of cognitive maturity. During this stage, individuals are said to develop abstract thinking, engage in systematic problem-solving, and show a form of egocentrism, believing others are as preoccupied with their behavior as they are...

Area of Science:

  • Educational Psychology
  • Sociology of Education
  • Culturally Responsive Teaching

Background:

  • Qualitative research on student perspectives of culturally responsive practices (CRP) is limited.
  • Existing models of CRP may not fully capture student experiences and expectations.
  • Understanding student voice is crucial for refining and advancing CRP.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore middle and high school students' perspectives on improving teachers' culturally responsive practices (CRP).
  • To examine if student-identified concepts align with or extend existing CRP frameworks.
  • To incorporate student voice into the conceptualization and implementation of CRP.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted 23 focus groups with 103 Black, Latine, and White middle and high school students in the Midwest.
  • Analyzed 103 student excerpts detailing suggestions for improving classroom practices.
  • Coded excerpts for alignment with the Double Check CARES framework and the Eight Competencies of Culturally Responsive Teaching.

Main Results:

  • Sixty-seven of 103 student excerpts aligned with one or both existing CRP frameworks.
  • Thirty-six excerpts presented themes not captured by the Double Check CARES or Eight Competencies frameworks.
  • Identified commonalities and differences in student perspectives across diverse and homogenous focus groups.

Conclusions:

  • Student perspectives offer valuable insights that can expand current models of culturally responsive practices (CRP).
  • Incorporating student voice is essential for developing more effective and relevant CRP in educational settings.
  • Findings have implications for teacher professional development and improving classroom strategies to meet diverse student needs.
