Measuring Equity Simulations

Om kurset

This week on TeachLab, host Justin Reich is joined by research scientist Joshua Littenberg-Tobias PhD. and Elizabeth Borneman M.Sc. to discuss a recently published Teaching Systems Lab efficacy study around the online course Becoming a More Equitable Educator and how well participants engaged with simulations about equity. They discuss the findings within the paper and the implications for simulation-based research.“There's very little research into what do people actually do in these simulations. To what extent are they actually applying their learning in simulation behavior?... people might say, ‘Oh, I believe this thing, or I'm really supportive of equity,’ but when actually presented with a scenario, how do they respond to that in real time?" - Joshua Littenberg-Tobias In this episode we’ll talk about:The Educator MindsetsThe research and Topic ModelingMeasuring changes in behavior over timeSimulations for professional developmentDifferences in teacher responses Resources and LinksCheck out Becoming a More Equitable Educator: Mindsets and PracticesWatch the full webinar Digital Clinical Simulations in Online Learning Environments to Promote Equity Mindsets: A Randomized Controlled TrialCheck out the TSL research paper Measuring Equity-Promoting Behaviors in Digital Teaching Simulations: A Topic Modeling ApproachCheck out Justin Reich’s book Failure to Disrupt: Why Technology Alone Can't Transform Education Transcripthttps://teachlabpodcast.simplecast.com/episodes/equity-simulations/transcript Produced by Aimee Corrigan and Garrett Beazley.
