Abolishing Misperceptions About Sex Equity in Education.
Sadker, Myra; And Others
Theory into Practice, v25 n4 p219-26 Aut 1986
Three misperceptions about sex equity in education are examined: (1)educational equity and excellence are not compatible; (2) women's equity diverts resources from other needs; and (3) sex equity has been achieved. Since most teachers are women, educators concerned with a predicted teacher shortage should not dismiss sex equity issues as inconsequential. (MT)
