This short little handout (link is here) goes further into the definition of cultural deficit, that thinking that cultures are inferior will become a self-fulfilling prophecy. I have no idea about what it means by "perceived lack of intellect", besides that by perceiving difference in race, language, and physical features cause the teacher to ignore those students. I like the silly clip art.

Thank-you for that link to an additionally resource! Your sentence would be more accurate if it read:
ReplyDeleteTeachers assumed he was culturally deficient because he was from the inner city!
I like your additional resource. It's nice to read the same thing but written differently, deepens the understanding.
