Sedlacek, Quentin C. – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
Writing activities can function as powerful teaching tools in science education -- but are their benefits realised equitably? The answer may depend in part on how teachers interpret and respond to student writing in light of societal stereotypes that link scientific competence, linguistic competence, and racial, ethnic, or gender identity. In this…

This article explores the "scope," "foundation," and "application" of autoethnography in first-year composition and critical thinking classrooms.
