520 Education in the 21st century has evolved, and today's
American student is achieving academic heights never seen
before in public education. With graduation rates reaching
all-time highs, it is appalling to see the disparity in
data reflecting high school completion. Current data
indicates a decrease of African American male learners
completing high school diplomacy programs in comparison to
their counterparts. As public educators in America, it is
our responsibility to foster an environment that is
conducive for all students to learn. The purpose of this
qualitative case study was to explore the educational
experiences of African American male students enrolled in
an urban public charter high school. The study examined
how these African American male pupils perceived the
effectiveness of pedagogical strategies implemented in
their high school. The researcher used purposeful sampling
methods to select ten high school students to interview
for this study. The findings of this study indicated that
African American male high school students' preferred
pedagogical learning styles that are more hands-on, visual,
and incorporates fewer teacher lectures. Also, African
American males noted that teachers should provide more
activities and assignments using sports and games. African
American males in this study said that teachers need to
use more technological devices in classroom activities
such as oculars, smart phones, and computer tablets. The
findings for research question two found that black male
students revealed that some African American males
impregnating their girlfriends have caused them to drop
out of high school before earning a diploma. Also, some
African American males faced family and personal
struggles. The struggles noted by the black male were:
lack of parental involvement in their education, parents
working too much, lack of parent empathy, and the growing
temptation for black males to join a gang while still in
high school
