Journal of Technology and Teacher Education, v28 n4 p639-663 Oct 2020
Implicit bias is an important area of study in the field of education because it permeates schools, and it can severely affect the experiences students have in the classroom. Historically, scholars have used implicit association tests to identify implicit bias in pre-service teachers, but they have not addressed the role technology plays in it. Through an input-output framework designed for bias, this mixed methods study tests a strategy for using search engine results to increase pre-service teachers' awareness of implicit bias. This study explains the strategy's design and purpose in detail before discussing the results and sharing implications for teacher educators.
