22-Aug-2013 What’s happening? Inzlicht & Ben-Zeev, 2000

22-Aug-2013 Stereotype Threat Steele, 1997: Concern about being evaluated based on negative stereotypes about one’s group –Can affect any group for which strong, well- known, negative stereotypes are relevant in particular settings –One does not need to believe in a negative stereotype for it to have an effect

22-Aug-2013 Gender and Math Spencer, Steele, & Quinn, 1995

22-Aug-2013 What are the implications for CS? Context and situation matter (often more than we think they do) CA’s have power to create environments that can increase the success of all students!

22-Aug-2013 Uh, what did you say? “You are so articulate!” “Where are you from? Yeah, but where are you really from?” “Oh, you’re a CS grad student? I thought you were someone’s girlfriend.” “You don’t seem like a computer scientist.” 6

22-Aug-2013 Microaggressions Microaggressions are the everyday verbal, nonverbal, and environmental slights, or insults, whether intentional or unintentional, that communicate hostile, derogatory, or negative messages to target persons based on their group membership (Sue, 2010) 7

22-Aug-2013 What do microaggressions look like? Can be verbal or nonverbal –A women clutches her purse tighter when a Black man comes toward her –A women of color being asked if she is lost in the Gates building –A female graduate student being mistaken for a technician and administrator Often not intentional, but still hurtful 8

22-Aug-2013 Creating a positive climate Starting the quarter / setting the tone Ground rules and agreements Humility and learning focus: “If I say something wrong, let me know” Create a mechanism for student concerns Acknowledge elephants in the room –“ Master / slave model of communication ” 9

22-Aug-2013 Creating a positive climate Learn student names and pronouns Show interest in students as individuals Model growth mindset Data from CS lab groups shows men are more likely to interrupt women – be vigilant about interruptions and reinforce ground rules when needed 10

22-Aug-2013 Addressing Stereotype Threat Help students attribute struggles to the difficulty of the work, not a lack of ability on their part Remind students of identities linked to academic success (Stanford students!) Expose students to positive, successful role models (could be you, could be examples or pictures you use)

22-Aug-2013 Engage all students Eddy & Hogan, 2014: Increasing course structure through guided reading questions, preparatory homework, and in-class activities benefits all students, and especially Black and first generation students 21 Strategies

22-Aug-2013 What questions do you have? Jennifer Randall Crosby, Ph.D. Gloriana Trujillo, Ph.D. 13

22-Aug-2013 What will you do? Go to: Tell us one thing you will do as a CA to create and sustain an inclusive environment 14
