Eschewing the worn zero-sum paradigm, this book is about how to create schools and learning communities where all students are able to thrive--not defined by their behavior, not labeled because of their needs, and not discarded. Equity is premised upon a recognition that because all children are different there must be a deep commitment to meet the needs of every child in order to ensure that each student receives what he or she needs to grow and develop and ultimately to succeed. Blankstein, Noguera, and Kelly offer a new paradigm that is grounded in knowledge derived from three important areas of research: child development, neuroscience, and environmental influences on child development and learning.
