"Our calling is to drop our egos, commit to removing barri ers, and
treat our learners with the unequivocal respect and dignity they
deserve." --Mirko Chardin and Katie Novak When it comes to the hard
work of reconstructing our schools into places where every student
has the opportunity to succeed, Mirko Chardin and Katie Novak are
absolutely convinced that teachers should serve as our primary
architects. And by "teachers" they mean legions of teachers working
in close collaboration. After all, it's teachers who design
students' learning experiences, who build student relationships . .
. who ultimately have the power to change the trajectory of our
students' lives. Equity by Design is intended to serve as a
blueprint for teachers to alter the all-too-predictable outcomes
for our historically under-served students. A first of its kind
resource, the book makes the critical link between social justice
and Universal Design for Learning (UDL) so that we can equip
students (and teachers, too) with the will, skill, and collective
capacity to enact positive change. Inside you'll find: Concrete
strategies for designing and delivering a culturally responsive,
sustainable, and equitable framework for all students Rich
examples, case studies, and implementation spotlights of educators,
students (including Parkland survivors), and programs that have
embraced a social justice imperative Evidence-based application of
best practices for UDL to create more inclusive and equitable
classrooms A flexible format to facilitate use with individual
teachers, teacher teams, and as the basis for whole-school
implementation "Every student," Mirko and Katie insist, "deserves
the opportunity to be successful regardless of their zip code, the
color of their skin, the language they speak, their sexual and/or
gender identity, and whether or not they have a disability."
Consider Equity by Design a critical first step forward in
providing that all-important opportunity. Also From Corwin:
