Perceptions of Professorial Bias and Impacts on Student Learning
Fri, September 11, 2:00 to 3:30pm MDT (2:00 to 3:30pm MDT), TBASession Submission Type: Created Panel
Session Description
This panel addresses a question that has become increasingly voiced in recent years: are liberal academics biasing a generation of students? In these papers, authors grapple with that question empirically, think through how the question becomes more fraught when faculty use social media, and conceive of the professor as an inherently political – though not necessarily partisan -- position.
