An examination of equity pedagogy during program coherence building in teacher education

This article shares results from a larger, longitudinal study on program coherence and illustrates one teacher education program's efforts to implement equity pedagogy across the program. Equity pedagogy was found in organic planning processes, throughout the learning environment, and in course content and designs. Equity pedagogy developed from collaborative practices, critical reflection, and a caring community; these being three key tenets of the program's vision and values. Contributions to the literature include: detailed, descriptive examples of challenges and strategies for equity-based pedagogy and empirical analysis of a university program's attempts to develop equity-minded teachers located in a child centered teacher education program.
