(Name-mce) ListServ Question re: MCTE

[CARLI R. KYLES]

This is good conversation- thank you for the responses.  It is clear that many
movements either paralleled or gave rise to what we now know as multicultural
teacher education (i.e- intergroup ed, intercultural ed, black ed, multiethnic
ed, civil rights movement) and some universities took it upon themselves to
include MCTE in their grad/teacher prep program before 1977- but I wonder if
the NCATE standards of 1977 weren't issued, and the books from AACTE and ASCD
weren't published- how much longer would it have taked for MCTE to become
mainstream or deliberately a part of teacher preparation programs?  Was that
the tipping point?  Would it have been up to progressive/radical educators to
do this alone on their respective campuses?  I think we can still argue that
quality MCTE is still not a part of teacher preparation programs- some
universities enact Standard 4 with better quality and more than a one-shot,
catch all course or tourist-heroes-holiday-human relation-approaches than
others.  What is the next tipping point?  It certainly wasn't NCLB.

Comments?
