Can teaching assistants help us build inclusive classrooms? Well yes! They not only consider it part of their role, but also feel confident about their abilities to do so. Short 🧵 about our new paper on work done with Siara Isaac & Helena Kovax at EPFL.

Check out this really colourful paper in which we explore teaching assistants’ perspectives on building inclusive classrooms, and find that they are already think of and prioritise inclusive practices, and can be powerful forces in #IncreasingInclusivity.

Hiding easter eggs in academic literature is so much fun. Especially when they help you win a war that has been going on since 2015.
Do you concede Christopher Warneke?

Students explain evolution by natural selection differently for humans versus nonhuman animals
Evolution is foundational to understanding biology, yet learners at all stages have incomplete and incorrect ideas that persist beyond graduation. Contextual features of prompts (e.g., taxon of organi...
