Abstract

Closing the Opportunity Gap offers accessible, research-based essays written by leading experts who highlight the disparities that exist in our public schools for the opportunity to learn instead of test scores and outcomes. They focus on how policy decisions and broader circumstances conspire to cumulatively create the "opportunity gap" that leads inexorably to the academic achievement gaps that have become so stark.

Abstract

Das Postulat einer Bildung für alle muss mit dem Diskurs der interkulturellen Bildung und mit dem der Diversität verknüpft sein, wenn der Herausforderung einer möglichst gerecht verteilten Bildung und der Überwindung sozialer Ungleichheit konkret zu begegnen ist. Anders als in vielen Texten zur interkulturellen Pädagogik, die Migration in den Mittelpunkt rücken und somit - auch ungewollt - den Eindruck einer besonderen Pädagogik erwecken, wird hier eine breitere Perspektive eingenommen. Das Versprechen »Bildung für alle« wurde bisher nicht eingelöst. Soziale Ungleichheit gibt es in jeder Gesellschaft. Interkulturalität und Diversität gehören zum Erleben der meisten Menschen. In einer international vergleichenden Perspektive werden bildungspolitische Tendenzen beleuchtet und Wege einer inklusiven Pädagogik aufgezeigt, in der Interkulturalität und Diversität selbstverständlich sind und die dem Ziel der bestmöglichen Bildung für alle verpflichtet ist.
