Name It to Tame It: Overcoming Implicit Bias in Special Education

Stereotypes and unconscious biases are the result, in part, of the human brain’s need to categorize and store vast amounts of information. While everyone has unconscious biases, it can create problems when they surface in our recommendations, referrals, and relationships. In this workshop, participants will learn about the different neurological processes that fuel unconscious biases, how implicit bias can distort decision-making, and learn how to engage in more systematic thinking that can achieve better outcomes for students.
