Research Presentation with Amy Fisher, Ph.D., NCSP, LPA
University of Kentucky
Behavioral and academic outcomes differ for students by race and ability within the public education system with even more striking gaps at the intersection of the two. Fisher will explore how bias in the school system is complex and contributes to ongoing educational inequity by sharing results from a factorial experiment using vignettes with educators-in-training. This work is situated within a disability studies and critical race theoretical framework, in which race and ability are understood as socially constructed and interconnected within the K-12 education system.
