Reaching Higher: The Power of Expectations in Schooling
Rhona S. Weinstein
Drawing upon a generation of research on self-fulfilling prophecies in education, Weinstein argues that our expectations of children are often too low. She shows that children typed early as “not very smart“ can go on to accomplish far more than is expected of them by an educational system with too narrow a definition of ability.
