"Teachers Are Not Miracle Workers": Lloyd Dunn's Call for Hispanic Activism.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Cummins, Jim – Hispanic Journal of Behavioral Sciences, 1988
Responds to Dunn's monograph on Hispanic-Anglo differences in IQ scores. Discusses the cultural/linguistic bias in IQ tests, and the inevitability of this bias due to methods of test development and standardization. Criticizes Dunn's proposal for English immersion programs to replace bilingual education. Contains 21 references. (Author/SV)
