Journal entry 4
Students with an Appalachian background are subject to poorer test scores due to the difficulties they have when reading the questions of the test. Some teachers have even noticed that students hold back in writings because they fear that they will be judged due to their grammar and writing style. Other teachers who choose not to use inclusive teaching techniques often see this as students being lazy. They believe in not always correcting students when they use their certain dialect. Teachers should be responsible in knowing the students and developing ways to reach each individual student.
