would What you do? Ashley is a wiz at math. She "gets" everything instantly. It usually takes her only five minutes to do her math homework. Nick, on the other hand, struggles with math. He labors over math problems, sometimes for hours. Should Ashley and Nick have the same math homework assignment? Equity vs Equality What is desirable: equality in education or equity in education? What does equity in education look like? How do we know if our schools are equitable? If students' school experiences are equitable? What is stopping us from having equitable schools? Ideas? 1 of 7 Equity as a Barrier to Effective Education Barriers to Effective Education Equity Accountability Mobility Obsolescence 2 of 7 Definitions of Equity in Education How should we measure equity? We discuss 3 types: Equity of time or years Equity of resources Equity of results 3 of 7 Barriers to Equity in Education Lack of resources where need is greatest new teachers hardest assignments fewest resources - financial - human, poorest schools Figure 1.
