Synopsis

While group work is common in most lab courses, research has raised concerns about students’ experiences in those groups. I'll discuss our recent work evaluating how students participate in the hands-on aspects of labs, particularly illuminating imbalances between men's and women's participation. I'll also describe how nuances in students' perceptions of these experiences and differences in single-gender versus mixed-gender groups motivate different types of instructional interventions (or even no intervention at all!).
