Overview

"Toward the Bigger Half: Equity in Public Education explores what makes equity and schooling uncomfortable but necessary companions. Dr. Beth Godett theorizes about the goal of equity in public education and provides a vital window into history and the law. The term ""equity"" is demystified by introducing historical figures as if they were alive today. Her book will make you angry, curious, and also hopeful. Challenging her readers to embrace opportunities, Dr. Godett details pragmatic ways that teachers (like herself) can make a difference in K-12 education. Enjoy it in one sitting or break it into small bites; either way you will be eager to share new ideas with colleagues."

Author Information

"A K-12 educator, principal, and superintendent, perhaps Beth Godett's favorite role has been that of public school teacher. Always a student herself, Dr. Godett earned a law degree after 35 years in the public schools of Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, and New Jersey. She is now an adjunct professor of education law and policy. Dr. Godett has contributed in many ways as an innovative educator. She has been honored as one of the ""Women of Inspiration"" in Education by the National Association of Women Business Owners; is the recipient of grants through the Carnegie Corporation and the American Society for Quality; and is the force behind business-education partnerships and transformative school initiatives. This is her first book with others now in development."
