High Hopes and Higher Education: Honoring Black Students’ Aspirations
This documentary, developed by Regional Education Laboratory (REL) Midwest with Wisconsin Public Television, explores how evidence-based strategies can support black students’ higher education aspirations.
In the documentary, researchers Dr. Jameela Conway-Turner (REL Midwest) and Dr. Deborah Faye Carter (Claremont Graduate University) discuss promising practices that educators can use to support black students on their journey to postsecondary education, including embracing culturally responsive education, communicating high expectations, and developing strong student-teacher relationships.
The documentary also highlights the Precollege Enrichment Opportunity Program for Learning Excellence (PEOPLE) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison; professor emeritus Dr. Gloria Ladson-Billings; students and staff from the Minority Student Achievement Network; and staff and students from the Madison Metropolitan School District (MMSD). The documentary focuses on examples from Wisconsin, but the information and evidence shared in the program offer important learnings for people and groups based outside the state.
