Popis: White privilege is an important concept when considering issues such as social justice, the internal “culture” of engineering education and systematic change in engineering education. However, it is not well understood by most engineering educators. This Special Session will help participants explore the idea of White Privilege within the context of engineering education. Through an interactive format, participants will learn some theory and develop some ideas for addressing White Privilege in engineering learning environments. The related idea of stereotype threat will also be discussed.
