Equity in the classroom: BATL reflective tool for teachers
With my colleagues from the University of Southern Denmark, I co-created an open-access resource and workshop to prepare university teachers for unanticipated interactions in and outside the classroom – such as sexist, racist or transphobic behaviour, to name a few.
This reflective tool uses real-life vignettes based on our own and colleagues’ experiences in teaching scientific topics, and it is meant to be used to stimulate discussion in small groups.
Our small team included two academic developers, a gender equality consultant and a computer science researcher. We were brought together via two special interest groups operating across Danish universities: Bias Aware Teaching and Learning (BATL) and Teaching and Learning in the International Classroom, hosted by the Danish Network for Educational Development in Higher Education.
