Why Classroom Equity Strategies Aren't Always Equal
Curren-Preis, Martha; Garcia, Nicole; Shaughnessy, Meghan
Educational Leadership, v79 n5 p55-59 Feb 2022
Teachers who are concerned about introducing inherent biases into their classroom practices may find themselves turning to equity strategies to help randomize and equalize their practices. But these strategies, such as using popsicle sticks to randomize who a teacher calls on to ask a question, can also mitigate inequities in a different direction if not used with care. The authors highlight ways to ensure that your equity strategies are truly equitable.
