I was inspired by this NPR story. Researchers looked at what methods effectively change people’s unconscious racial biases. You’ll be surprised by what did…and what didn’t!
Incorporating successful elements in to various technologies – simulations, games, etc. – may prove helpful in reducing bias!
I was intrigued when I came across this post. An English instructor challenged her students to design games around social justice. What a great idea for a Social Work course!
“Gaming for Social Justice”, I can see it now! I just wish I had the skills to teach it!
