Characterizing practices and resources for inclusive physics learning

written by Laura A. H. Wood and Amy D. Robertson

Fostering inclusive physics learning environments for women and people of color is an important aspect of improving physics culture and teaching. We interviewed physics faculty who are actively working to make their classrooms and departments more inclusive. We characterized the inclusive practices these faculty described themselves as using and the resources – e.g., the knowledge, dispositions, and commitments – that fuel or support their doing so. This paper gives examples of these resources and practices for inclusive physics learning, illustrating both the breadth and richness of resources physics faculty are using and the ways in which those resources are brought to bear in teaching strategies and departmental actions.
