After looking at testing data, Mr. Evans feels that too much data indicate what is conventionally known: students in lower socioeconomic settings perform less well than their more affluent peers. Which of the following actions might Mr. Evans take to improve the instruction for his students who fall into the lower socioeconomic category?
  1. Reading professional literature on raising standards for lower socioeconomic children
  2. Providing more student-centered learning experiences
  3. Providing more teacher-centered learning experiences
  4. Being a more culturally sensitive teacher
Explanation
Answer: A - Reading professional literature on raising standards for lower socioeconomic children. Given the concern that Mr. Evans has arrived at, he would be wise to pursue research on the subject of raising achievement for students in a low socioeconomic bracket. His level of sensitivity is not in question and it will be during the research that he will learn about best practices of instruction that address his concern.
