What does the saying, “Eating the elephant one bite at a time,” have to do with improving educational equity? Things that appear to be overwhelming or seemingly impossible, like addressing the myriad of inequities in K-12 education, can be accomplished by taking on a little at a time. So, how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. How do we improve educational equity? Take on one goal at a time.
In this edWebinar, Lexia’s Dr. Liz Brooke and Dr. Suzanne Carreker will talk about the steps to improve educational equity and will highlight:
- The difference between an achievement gap and an opportunity gap
- How the pandemic is widening equity gaps
- The implications of a new equity-focused U.S. Secretary of Education
- What leaders can do to start leading with an equity agenda
This edWebinar will be of interest to preK-12 teachers and school and district leaders. There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.
