Abstract

Cultural competencies and confidence in teaching diverse students are needed to close achievement gaps between mainstream and minority students in science. In this study, an online teacher education program, Virtual and Open Integration of Culture for Education (VOICE), was designed to help retain teacher candidates’ science affinities and cultural competency during the COVID-19 pandemic. Thirty-two Korean teacher candidates were selected as culturally responsive instructors who were able to reduce their cultural bias and preferences about Korean culture and develop culturally responsive instruction. VOICE proceeded through (1) “collaborating,” by connecting seminar speakers worldwide; (2) “designing,” by creating culturally responsive science activities based on Korean culture; and (3) “performing,” by communicating with American students, teacher candidates, teachers, and parents. Pre- and post-survey results show that VOICE increased the teacher candidates’ cultural proficiency and interest in science. Guidelines for research on designing online programs to enhance teacher candidates’ science affinities and cultural competencies are provided.
2019冠状病毒病疫情期间,韩国科学教师候选人与文化促进教育(VOICE)的虚拟开放融合
为了缩小主流学生和少数族裔学生在科学方面的成绩差距,需要培养培养培养多样化学生的文化能力和信心。在这项研究中,设计了一个在线教师教育计划,即虚拟和开放的文化教育整合(VOICE),以帮助在新冠肺炎大流行期间保留教师候选人的科学亲和力和文化能力。32名韩国教师候选人被选为文化响应型教师,他们能够减少对韩国文化的文化偏见和偏好,并发展文化响应型教学。VOICE通过(1)“合作”,将世界各地的研讨会发言人联系起来;(2) “设计”,通过创造基于韩国文化的文化响应科学活动;以及(3)通过与美国学生、教师候选人、教师和家长交流来“表演”。调查前后的结果表明,VOICE提高了教师候选人的文化水平和对科学的兴趣。提供了设计在线课程以提高教师候选人的科学亲和力和文化能力的研究指南。
