Abstract

This study is Part 2 of a project on diversity in the teacher pipeline. Part 1's research is entitled “An Analysis of Motivating Factors for Black Men as Aspirant Educators” in the Journal of Equity in Behavioral Health Therapy. There were four motivational factors identified in Part 1 of the project: communication, exposure, resources (testing), and student teaching. Implementation of the motivating factors was Part 2 and funded by the Center for Educational Opportunity. Part 2 explains the significance of the study as the efficacy of children having a teacher with whom they share ethnicity, color, and/or gender. The EPP in the study is harvesting nearly 20% males of color teachers into the pipeline. The four factors were found to be effective. Leaders will appreciate the concise presentation of standards that will work for all new teachers. The current statistics show that males of color constitute only 4.6% of the total teaching force. This study focuses on the solution to address this underrepresentation in the form of four standards ready for implementation by leaders.
