Minoritized students' ethnic backgrounds and racial appearances influence their academic opportunities and belonging experiences, and limit their access to safe and equal learning environments. In the Netherlands, limited research has focused on minoritized students' experiences. In this study, we drew upon a theoretical framework focused on…

All teachers, regardless of their backgrounds, require appropriate preparation to address the necessities of all students. A significant challenge in preparing teachers is ensuring they are familiar with the unique characteristics of the different group of students in their classrooms. According to New York State of Education (NYSED), the…

This article looks past the gifted classics of children's literature to explore the incredible opportunity that is missed all too often: an opportunity to intentionally choose books in which diversity is not the point but showcase much-needed representation. Drawing on the concepts of mirrors, windows, and sliding glass doors this article explores…

Although gifted education can make a critical difference in students' lives, many American pupils who would benefit from this type of education do not get placed in gifted programs. Low-income students of color experience this problem more often than other children. This article offers various reasons for the underrepresentation of students of…

In many academic fields Western/white/male/cishetero/abled perspectives are often centered, while other perspectives are presented as "other." Implicitly, this sends messages to students that success looks like one type of person, knowledge is generated in one kind of way, and their background is not worth being centered. While open…

In this paper, we consider how teachers and teacher educators may foreground relationships, experiences, pasts, and possibilities to more fully recognize and extend already-present literacy practices of youth of color as strengths from which more equitable curriculum and teaching opportunities may be designed and enacted. We assert theoretical…

This chapter examines leadership and social class in the context of fraternities and sororities.

The Standards of Care for Assessment in Group Work represent a collaborative effort between the Association for Assessment and Research in Counseling (AARC) and the Association for Specialists in Group Work (ASGW). The purpose of these standards is to address the distinctive aspects of group work assessment that group workers often overlook and…

The Standards of Care for Research in Group Work were developed in partnership between the Association for Assessment in Research in Counseling (AARC) and the Association for Specialists in Group Work (ASGW). The purpose of these standards is to highlight empirically validated and literature-supported practices for conducting research in group…

Methods for group comparisons using predicted probabilities and marginal effects on probabilities are developed for regression models for binary outcomes. Unlike approaches based on the comparison of regression coefficients across groups, the methods we propose are unaffected by the scalar identification of the coefficients and are expressed in…

As higher education classrooms are increasingly comprised of generation Z learners, healthcare educators should prepare to be intentional in fostering learning and professional identity development in a unique generation of student practitioners.

Background: It has repeatedly been reported that, when making decisions under uncertainty, groups outperform individuals. Real groups are often replaced by simulated groups: Instead of performing an actual group discussion, individual responses are aggregated by a numerical computation. While studies have typically used unweighted majority voting…

Teachers of color are generally recruited in five documented ways: (1) Financial incentives; (2) State government mandates; (3) State-supported recruitment programs; (4) District recruitment centers; and (5) Alternative certification routes. This document highlights what the research says is the most effective.

In addition to providing context to why the teaching workforce is 80% white, this brief presents ways that practitioners and leaders can successfully keep teachers of color in the classroom. The five key values that frame the research in this brief are: (1) location; (2) use; (3) maintenance; (4) modification; and (5) time. Each section provides…
