Abstract

Abstract:"Chilly climate," as a concept, has been hugely influential in education studies. However, studies of people of color, genderqueer folx, men, and non-STEM graduate programs have been few and far between within this body of literature. So, too, have been interventions to address inhospitable learning environments at the collegiate level. In this paper, we advance a new analytic to study the experiences of people in the aforementioned populations: "intersectional spectrum of experience." We surveyed twenty-four graduate students across racial/ethnic and gender identities in two seminars in a "female-dominated" discipline. We found wide variability in perceptions of classroom equity by race and gender identity; men were least likely to attest to male superiority, and none of the men found the intervention to improve classroom equity helpful. We argue that "intersectional spectrum of experience" speaks to the ways in which gender and racial identity intersect to create a range of (un)ease in the classroom.
女性主导?社会科学博士研讨会中的男性垄断
摘要:“寒冷气候”作为一个概念,在教育研究中有着巨大的影响。然而,对有色人种、性别酷儿、男性和非stem研究生项目的研究在这一文献体系中很少。因此,在大学层面上解决不友好的学习环境的干预措施也是如此。在本文中,我们提出了一种新的分析方法来研究上述人群中的人们的经验:“交叉经验谱”。我们在“女性主导”学科的两个研讨会上调查了24名不同种族/民族和性别身份的研究生。我们发现,种族和性别认同对课堂公平的看法存在很大差异;男性最不可能证明自己有男性优越感,而且没有一个男性认为改善课堂公平的干预措施有帮助。我们认为,“经验的交叉光谱”说明了性别和种族身份交叉的方式,从而在课堂上创造了一系列(不)轻松。
