广泛的理论和定性文献强调教学实践和内容与少数民族学生的经验相一致的承诺。民族研究课程是这种“文化相关教学法”的一个例子。尽管有理论支持，但关于这些课程有效性的定量证据有限。我们估计的因果关系的民族研究课程，使用“模糊”回归不连续设计的基础上，几所学校分配的八年级GPA低于阈值的学生参加课程。分配到这门课程增加了九年级出勤率21个百分点，GPA 1.4级点，并获得23学分。这些令人惊讶的大的影响表明，CRP，在高保真的情况下实施时，可以提供有效的支持，在风险的学生。
An extensive theoretical and qualitative literature stresses the promise of instructional practices and content aligned with minority students’ experiences. Ethnic studies courses provide an example of such “culturally relevant pedagogy” (CRP). Despite theoretical support, quantitative evidence on the effectiveness of these courses is limited. We estimate the causal effects of an ethnic studies curriculum, using a “fuzzy” regression discontinuity design based on the fact that several schools assigned students with eighth-grade GPAs below a threshold to take the course. Assignment to this course increased ninth-grade attendance by 21 percentage points, GPA by 1.4 grade points, and credits earned by 23. These surprisingly large effects suggest that CRP, when implemented in a high-fidelity context, can provide effective support to at-risk students.
