Davey and Angela examine the long-standing issue and reality of the disproportionate school disciplining of Black students. Reflecting the analyses and thoughts of Dr. Howie Knoff, a key finding is that teacher bias, particularly among less experienced white teachers in schools with high minority populations, contributes significantly to this disparity.
Your Hosts review two new research studies, highlighting the role of implicit bias in the discipline referrals of Black students, and how teacher experience also contributes to the disproportionality. Dr. Howie proposes three paths to address the issue: improved data analysis, policy changes aligning with recent federal guidance, and enhanced teacher training focusing on cultural competency and classroom management.
A case study illustrates the devastating effects of racial harassment on a Black student's well-being, and Davey and Angela reflect on what educators need to do to correct this historical issue.
