A Double Standard and Dubious Ethics in Determining Quality Teaching
Reardon, R. Martin
Journal of Cases in Educational Leadership, v19 n3 p3-10 Sep 2016
"Double Standard" was created by the actors who appeared in the accompanying video in spring 2014, as part fulfillment of the requirements for a master's-level class highlighting ethics in education for future educational administrators. A double standard comes into focus as an incoming middle school principal establishes procedures she associates with a well-run school. The White principal insists that lesson plans be submitted for review and applies a double standard in deciding that one Black teacher should be penalized--ostensibly because of her failure to turn in lesson plans--while another White teacher who does not turn in lesson plans is treated leniently. In the process, the principal pressures her White assistant principal to comply with her actions.
