Abstract
This chapter will focus on the effectiveness of implementing the Transparency in Teaching and Learning (TILT) framework strategy among African American and Caucasian students in the classrooms. The main content focuses on the African American and Caucasian students. Emphasis is on implementing all parts of the TILT framework, removing teaching and learning barriers, identification of learning strengths and weaknesses in the African American student, leveling the playing field for all students, and developing guidance that will benefit students in and out of the classroom. Using the TILT framework will help all students understand how and why they are learning course content and will promote a conscious understanding of what is to be expected.
