Case: Diversity in Honors/AP Classes
It is the end of the year and you are working on course recommendations for the next school year. Your department head has told you that administration wants more diversity in honors and AP classes and that she will be checking recommendations to make sure that you are not only recommending white students. You begin to feel fearful that you will be labeled racist if you do not include more students of other races. However, you don't feel comfortable placing students in classes where they won't be successful for the sake of diversity. What would you do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
One possible solution is to survey your class and ask who wants to be recommended. There may be many students who aren't White that are still wiling to take those classes even though they may fail and vice-versa. |

| Comments: I appreciate that this solution seeks out students who are driven to do more rather than only look at their grades. Even if they fail, at least they were given a chance. |

| Comments: I like this option because Advanced/AP classes are voluntary, and so could be left up to students/parents as long as the risks and consequences are known. In the event that there aren't enough places, a baseline score of grades and assessments could be used to whittle down the prospective population. |
