Moved[edit]

Moved from original Structural inequality page. Jeffree lee (talk) 22:18, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Added the formal split header. Not sure if a similar one needs to go on the original. Sorry! Jeffree lee (talk) 07:58, 7 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bifurcate[edit]

This article could be divided into two separate articles because it give a short analysis on the general idea of Structural inequality and a deep elaboration on the Structural inequality in education in the U.S. In the case of developing an article that particularly considers Structural inequality in the U.S, it wouldn't necessarily need to have a subtopic on the general idea of the structural inequality in healthcare.Chhristtian (talk) 18:03, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A new content under the article of Structural inequality in the U.S could elaborate on the possible resources that have allowed to start a breakthrough in the cycle. The section could be called Alternative to break the cycleChhristtian (talk) 18:32, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

An improvement that can be made to the article of Structural inequality in the U.S can involve starting with a specific introduction to the topic which particularly should focus in the U.S because it mainly describes structural inequality in education in the U.S. and as well a link to the article "Structural inequality" to also get an understanding on the general concept of structural inequality.Chhristtian (talk) 19:00, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Another content under the article could elaborate on the idea that funds are unequal and unfairly allocated. The content names can be Access to funding — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chhristtian (talk • contribs) 19:17, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The content under Healthcare could provide more information on how healthcare and education were linked. The information right now only mentions it once or twice without much impact. Pathu23 (talk) 05:53, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In the article about disabilities, the information about the Individual with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) is not cited to a source for the information. Pathu23 (talk) 05:58, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Access to Technology[edit]

There can be more information on getting data of how much better people with better access to technology does on test compared to people without the same access. Pathu23 (talk) 05:47, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Healthcare[edit]

This section seems to be out of place when the article is about structural inequality in education. The section does not relate to education and does not offer a relationship for healthcare's structural inequality and education's structural inequality. We could use research that has been cited and some other sources that explain the correlation and attempt to explain why education is related to lower life expectancy, or other non-production benefits such as those presented by Lance Lochner ([[1]]). Torresf (talk) 02:05, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The information on healthcare could become its own section where an intersectional approach shows the relationship between different Structural Inequalities linking to the broader topic of Structural Inequality and how it can be self-perpetuating. For example poorer districts tend to have greater minority populations, less public funding for school, less funding leads to less technology, and this in turn further lessens individuals access to equal opportunity. Torresf (talk) 04:30, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

History[edit]

The solutions that were proposed at the end of history should receive their own section that links to Education Reform and sections that elaborate upon what is being proposed to lessen the pervasiveness of Structural Inequalities. Torresf (talk) 04:13, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Potential Article Editing[edit]

Hello! I am interested in working with you on this article. I was thinking about adding more on the student tracking section. Possibly expanding the other sections as well (such as the healthcare section) and adding sections about structural inequality in education in other countries.
