The Equity Scorecard was developed by Dr. Estela Mara Bensimon at the Center for Urban Education, University of Southern California (http://www.usc.edu/dept/education/CUE/).
Each of the four perspectives has an objective.
From this objective we can:-Measure baseline performance -Set an improvement target-Work towards equity in educational outcomes.

Excellence: Grades
Achievement Gap: Curricular Reform Initiatives to Improve Student Learning
- Wide attention to data since 2008; several curriculum reform projects initiated in response to findings
Examples:- Intro Chemistry (Chem 103), a UW System funded project- Intro Psychology (Psych 202)- Introductory/Pre-calculus Math courses
Findings? Too soon to report impacts of curricular reform efforts.
