Definition
- Equity, in general terms, means the quality of fairness or impartiality. Equity, related to education and curriculum, does not connote that every student should be treated in the same way; rather, it indicates that each student should be guaranteed fair treatment with equal access to resources and curricular programs. [Source: Encyclopedia of Curriculum Studies; Equity]
