David M. Quinn – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2024
Racial equity in education is often framed around "closing the achievement gap," but many scholars argue this frame perpetuates deficit mindsets.

David Blazar; Melinda Adnot; Max Anthenelli; Xinyi Zhong – Grantee Submission, 2024
Teacher evaluation systems and their associated incentives have produced fairly mixed results.

Using a regression…

Workers learn on the job from both repetition and peers. Less understood is how specific types of experience and peer characteristics affect on-the-job learning. This likely differs by context (e.g., occupation, tasks, or roles). Absent such knowledge, it is unclear how to optimally assign workers to tasks and peers. We examine on-the-job learning…

Hendricks, Karin S. – Action, Criticism, and Theory for Music Education, 2021
Narratives featuring majoritarian (e.g., White, male, middle/upper class, and/or heterosexual) protagonists are so prevalent in U.S. society that they have become the normative reference point by which some members of society may view and label others. They may, therefore, implicitly consider those who do not fit the majoritarian mold as somehow…

Kawakami, Kerry; Friesen, Justin P.; Williams, Amanda; Vingilis-Jaremko, Larissa; Sidhu, David M.; Rodriguez-Bailón, Rosa; Cañadas, Elena; Hugenberg, Kurt – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
One reason for the persistence of racial discrimination may be anticipated dissimilarity with racial outgroup members that prevent meaningful interactions. In the present research, we investigated whether perceived similarity would impact the processing of same-race and other-race faces. Specifically, in two experiments, we varied the extent to…

Trinidad, Jose Eos – Race, Ethnicity and Education, 2021
Although studies on school suspensions focus on the disproportionate number of Black students receiving them, policy changes reducing suspensions offer new insights into the racial gap. Using annual school-level data from the Chicago Public Schools (2012-2016), I evaluate how a suspension reduction policy affected the number of students receiving…
