Abstract

["Anthropology &Education Quarterly, Volume 57, Issue 2, June 2026. ", "\nABSTRACT\nThis article delineates how pre‐service teachers developed dispositions to working with ethnically and linguistically diverse families through study of ethnography coupled with project‐based learning. Students' study of Con Respeto: Bridging the Distance Between Culturally Diverse Families and Schools by Guadalupe Valdés facilitated ideological shifts about family‐school relationships while putting theory into practice by designing and implementing family outreach. Despite shifting students' ideology, critical questions emerged about who pre‐service teachers' learning serves and power structures in teacher education.\n"]
