Description

This book offers a critical assessment of the experiences of African Canadian students, exploring strategies that will serve to enhance their academic success.

Writing from their respective locations as students, parents, teachers, counsellors, professors and researchers, the contributors to this collection alert readers to many of the challenges that African Canadians face in the educational system. They discuss new initiatives and suggest new directions that might improve the academic success of Black students.

Educating African Canadians offers practical suggestions that can enhance the education not only of African Canadian students, but of all students.
