Abstract

Abstract: This is a three-part essay featuring six teacher educators and one classroom teacher researcher. Part one describes faculty efforts to build curriculum for teacher research, scaffold the research process, and analyze outcomes. Part two shares one teacher researcher's experience using an equity audit tool in several contexts: her teaching practice, in collegial decision making, and as a guide for her teacher research projects. In part three, the authors reflect on the value of the equity audit.
