Abstract

This study aimed to reviewed studies on the assimilation in U.S.’s education systems, specifically how assimilation and assimilation policies have impacted immigrant students’ academic trajectory. This article begins with the review for assimilation education in America. Teachers in America have different academic expectations and interaction with students of different races. Some affirmative action policies are based on the concept of racial discrimination, which may lead to a kind of structural discrimination. Assimilation is on the opposite side from diversity which aims the stability of society. Therefore, national identity is involved to cultivate the sense for immigrants. The differences between Chinese and American classroom models and languages may result in the problem of Chinese immigrant students’ culture identity in the United States. Occupation as a final product of education can be used to judge the quality of assimilation education. Some figures are used to indicates the influence of this type of education intuitively.
