Online with LSE: Investigating Undergraduate Biology Students’ Science Identity Production

Students’ identity production in the context of undergraduate biology education influences their classroom experiences and their willingness to persist in the discipline. So, how do researchers approach collecting and analyzing evidence about students’ science identity production? This session of Online with LSE will feature Paul Le, Assistant Professor of Biology, at Red Rocks Community College. During the session, we’ll discuss his research team’s interview study that explored how students’ socially constructed identities (race, ethnicity, gender, etc.) and experiences may have impacted the production of their science identities.
