Counterpoint: Seeking "Equality" is Preferable to Being "Equitable."
Chattin, Sam
Middle School Journal, v27 n5 p11-13 May 1996
Addresses the hypothesis that girls must receive advantaged treatment to achieve a level playing field in the area of science education. Expresses concern that: (1) the result of advantaged treatment is unknown; (2) too much emphasis is placed on the power of textbooks; and (3) too much emphasis is placed on sexism in science versus science in sexism. (SD)
