Few studies have interrogated college readiness practices in urban schools through the lens of masculinity. Drawing on a yearlong ethnography, this study investigated how young men respond to college-readiness practices while enacting masculinity. Many young men were not convinced that working hard in their classes was necessary for their college futures. College preparation stressed seriousness and vulnerability, but masculine intellectualism was playful and tough. The contrast implies the need for college readiness practices better aligned with common experiences of masculinity in urban contexts.</p> <p><a href="https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/00420859221126708">Read article here.&nbsp;</a></p> <div class="tags-title">Tags</div> <div class="tags-list"> <div><a href="https://education.ucr.edu/tags/suneal-kolluri" hreflang="en">suneal kolluri</a></div> </div> <div class="sharing-title">Share This</div><span class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 addtoany_list" data-a2a-url="https://education.ucr.edu/news/2022/12/08/new-article-examines-how-young-men-respond-college-readiness-practices-while" data-a2a-title="New article examines how young men respond to college readiness practices while enacting masculinity"><a class="a2a_button_facebook"></a><a class="a2a_button_x"></a><a class="a2a_button_linkedin"></a><a class="a2a_button_google_plus"></a><a class="a2a_button_email"></a><a class="a2a_button_printfriendly"></a><a class="a2a_dd addtoany_share" aria-label="more options to share" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share#url=https%3A%2F%2Feducation.ucr.edu%2Fnews%2F2022%2F12%2F08%2Fnew-article-examines-how-young-men-respond-college-readiness-practices-while&amp;title=New%20article%20examines%20how%20young%20men%20respond%20to%20college%20readiness%20practices%20while%20enacting%20masculinity"></a></span><script> (function () { const customClassName = 'show-for-sr'; const targetContainer = document.querySelector('.a2a_kit.addtoany_list'); if (!targetContainer) return; const addClassToLabels = () => { const labels = targetContainer.querySelectorAll('.a2a_label'); if (labels.length > 0) { labels.forEach(label => { if (!label.classList.contains(customClassName)) { label.classList.add(customClassName); } }); console.log('Successfully applied show-for-sr class to AddToAny labels.'); return true; } return false; }; const observerConfig = { childList: true, subtree: true }; const observer = new MutationObserver((mutationsList, observer) => { if (addClassToLabels()) { observer.disconnect(); } }); if (!addClassToLabels()) { observer.observe(targetContainer, observerConfig); } })(); </script> Thu, 08 Dec 2022 22:16:43 +0000 juliep 1660 at https://education.ucr.edu
