Excellence Through Equity - Introduction

In the introduction the authors listed many arguments for equity and arguments for inequity.  Have you heard any of these in our district, our school, or our community that would help or hinder creating an equitable school?

The authors also called for teachers to have courage to follow a new paradigm.  This new paradigm comes from three areas of research:
1. child development
2. neuroscience
3. environmental influences on child development and learning.

What stuck out for you in regard to this new paradigm?  How does this shift make you react?
