Achieving equity Sample Clauses

Achieving equity. Compared to the United States or Finland education policies, which are striving to increase the excellence of all students, contemporary Kazakhstani gifted education has put a lot of effort on developing individuals’ intellectual capacities yet without much focus on equity of opportunities. Nevertheless, principals’ positive initiatives on ensuring equity of conditions in some aspects demonstrate they are trying to achieve this ideal at least within their school level. According to the participants of this study, equity in admission polices is often times overlooked due to the use of standardized tests used to identify students’ giftedness. As mentioned by Xxxxx and Xxxx (2018), a reliance on solely one type of assessment neglects equity norms, whilst utilizing multiple authentic ways of identification instruments allows one to evaluate a wider range of children’s abilities. In spite of this, some of the participants asserted that even if they want to change assessment instruments, there is a lack of research- based evidence of the validity of their ideas. More importantly, they refer to the lack of consideration in evaluating one’s creativity or outstanding presentation skills. These comments were in line with Xxxxxxxxx’s (2016) research findings where gifted education experts also pointed out the challenges in evaluating validity and credibility of students selection procedures when determining acceptance into a program for gifted education.
