商品簡介
Based on his work for in-service presentations, consultancies with public schools, empirical research projects, and drug seminars, Taylor presents a framework for educators, community agencies, and parents interested in instructing African-American boys in social skills such as respecting the rights of others, taking responsibility for their actions, showing good sportsmanship, dealing with threatened violence, and dealing with drug problems. Taylor (special education, Coppin State College, Baltimore) views such training as part of a holistic approach to remedying the substandard education many urban children are receiving; in addition, he notes, instruction that minimizes the teaching of civic and social responsibility in the quest for purely academic excellence may produce poorly informed citizens.
