Classnotes Podcast (September 21, 2012) Beginning with the Brown vs. the Board of Education Supreme Court ruling in 1954, this nation has passed through several phases – or generations – of tending to civil rights in education. We have moved from focusing on desegregation to equitable access for all students and later to systemic equity and accountability.Bradley Scott, Ph.D., director of the IDRA South Central Collaborative for Equity, describes how we are now entering into a sixth phase that is challenging us to be more focused on rigorous curriculum being presented by highly qualified teachers under the supervision of dynamic leadership. He says that this new sixth generation is calling us to examine the quality, correctness and suitability of the inputs to produce different outcomes for all learners regardless of their differences. Bradley is interviewed by Aurelio Montemayor, M.Ed., an IDRA senior education associate.Show length: Send comments to [email protected]Sign up for Classnotes e-mail alerts.ResourcesCourage to Connect: A Quality Schools Action Framework Edited by María “Cuca” Robledo Montecel, Ph.D., and Christie L.
