The Dreamkeepers "Education, like electricity, needs a conduit, a teacher, through which to transmit its power- i.e., the discovery and continuity of information, knowledge, wisdom, experience, and culture. Through the stories and experiences of eight successful teacher-transmitters, The DreamKeepers keeps hope alive for educating young African Americans."
So true... they can not blame students for failing or not completing their work... the teacher has a lot of control over students attitudes and should set down high expectations. If you hold them accountable, I believe they will do it. This will not work for every student but for many it will.
