Workshop | Unconscious Bias in Teaching & Learning

Unconscious Bias has become a key area of focus in organisational behaviour and practice Unconscious Bias has become a key area of focus in organisational behaviour and practice within the last decade. This, because, there is recognition that people have biases which they take with them into their work, and which, as a result, could have damaging and/or limiting impacts on individuals.

This workshop is arranged in three parts. First, an examination of the concept of Unconscious Bias. Second, it presents and discusses different types of bias. Third, it presents research/ case study evidence on biasing behaviours in teaching and learning/ classroom practice and how these potentially impact outcomes for students. There are opportunities throughout the session for discussions and Q&A.
