Cutting Through the Bias: Using Games and Interactive Experiences to Transform Bias Against Women in STEM (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781709989438)

In 2014, an interdisciplinary group of researchers at Dartmouth College, University of Buffalo, and Carnegie Mellon University came together to combat gender disparity in the sciences. Together these three principal investigators began the Interactive Narrative Technology to Reduce Implicit Negative Stereotyping and Improve the Climate in STEM for Underrepresented Students (INTRINSICS) Project. They set out to accomplish this goal by designing interactive experiences and leveraging breakthrough technology to support the development of and combat biases against women in the science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields. This book serves as a document of their innovative research, study findings, and outlines interventions and prototypes that can be used by educators to reduce the impact of bias in the classroom.
