摘要:An education equity mindset is fundamental to assuring all students are supported to achieve to their highest capacity. We have identified six attributes of an educational equity mindset critical to assuring teachers’ practices and professional choices are aligned with meeting the needs of all students. In an effort to promote education equity mindset among teachers we determined there was a need to first empirically document the construct. We surveyed 452 teachers in the southern region of the United States. Our results indicate that we effectively measured our definition of education equity mindset. We found multiple differences in the mindset attributes based on personal and professional variables. Our data indicate that teachers may hold competing or fragmented mindsets. Our research uncovered multiple needed lines of research and implications for teacher preparation and professional development.
