More From James S. Coleman

A Child's Learning Is A Function More Of The Characteristics Of His Classmates Than Those Of The Teacher.

Characteristics

In A High School, The Norms Act To Hold Down The Achievements Of Those Who Are Above Average, So That The School's Demands Will Be At A Level Easily Maintained By The Majority.

Cultural Dominance Of Middle-class Norms Prevail In Middle-class Schools With A Teacher Teaching Toward Those Standards And With Students Striving To Maintain Those Standards.

The Educational Resources Provided By A Child's Fellow Students Are More Important For His Achievement Than Are The Resources Provided By The School Board.

As An Example, One Of The Schools I Have Been Studying Is Too Small To Compete Effectively In Most Sports, But Participates With Vigor Each Year In The State Music Contests.
