Equity in Education: Bridging Research to Practice

The TELOS Initiative; the Cross Area Committee in Race, Inequality, and Language in Education (RILE); the Stanford Teacher Education Program (STEP); and the Center to Support Excellence in Teaching (CSET) held a collaborative conference, open to the public, on Saturday, February 2 to consider how to better serve students who are traditionally underserved in our classrooms.
