Answer 2

In my many observations of middle and high school classrooms, male students often lead and dominate classroom discussions. They raise their hands more often to answer questions than female students, and they volunteer more frequently to read aloud their writing or the class texts. According to research by Fengshu Liu, because of this, teachers often unconsciously rely on male students as their target or go-to responders and volunteers. The result is that girls are then called on less frequently, compounding their silence and resulting in unintended gender bias in instructional practices.

1. If you find more male authors, scientists, and mathematicians featured in the textbook you use, do your own research and add more notable women to the mix.

2. Use wait/think time deliberately. Instead of calling on the first or second hand, choose the fourth, fifth, or sixth.

3. Be aware of the number of female students you call on. Be incredibly proactive in making sure that all students (regardless of gender, ethnicity, language, or learning ability) are equitably included in discussions and participation.
