Families, Education and GiftednessStudying the Family

Families, Education and Giftedness: Studying the Family [Much educational research established that students’ family contexts influenced their educational outcomes. Work particularly focused on social class as mediating these outcomes. It was demonstrated that there was a disparity between the achievement-oriented values of the school, including language use, directed to the future, allied to what were more likely to be middle-class values, and the more collectivist, family and peer-group oriented values of working class students, which tended to be less future-oriented (e.g., Bernstein, 1973; Marjoribanks, 2002).] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[Much educational research established that students’ family contexts influenced their educational outcomes. Work particularly focused on social class as mediating these outcomes. It was demonstrated that there was a disparity between the achievement-oriented values of the school, including language use, directed to the future, allied to what were more likely to be middle-class values, and the more collectivist, family and peer-group oriented values of working class students, which tended to be less future-oriented (e.g., Bernstein, 1973; Marjoribanks, 2002).]
