Abstract Title: Validation of the Student Inclusive Teaching Strategies Inventory (ITSI-S) for instructional STEM laboratory settings
Abstract Type: Contributed Poster Presentation
Abstract: Access and inclusion in instructional laboratory settings is an important topic in our modern age. Student perceptions of inclusivity are paramount for understanding access needs in classroom settings. The Inclusive Teaching Strategies Inventory - Student (ITSI-S) is an instrument for measuring students' perceptions of the inclusivity of various classroom practices. The instructor component, the ITSI, has been validated for STEM classrooms and for laboratory instructors and significant changes were made by our study team members in previous years. In this paper we describe our validation of the ITSI-S. Data were collected through interviews with students in laboratory courses. Then, we utilized content analysis to uncover areas where students misunderstood the question or needed further clarification. The ITSI-S could be a valuable tool to help investigate inclusivity in labs from the student perspective and could in particular give voice to disabled students.
