Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

The Faculty Learning Optimizes Student Success (FLOSS) program helps college faculty improve inclusive teaching. This initiative reduces student attrition from science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields.

Area of Science:

  • Education
  • Higher Education
  • STEM Education

Background:

  • Students from marginalized identities often leave STEM fields before graduation, contributing to underrepresentation.
  • Addressing this disparity is crucial for equity in academia and the workforce.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the Faculty Learning Optimizes Student Success (FLOSS) program's impact on faculty.
  • To assess changes in faculty's understanding of student needs and inclusive teaching practices.

Main Methods:

  • Faculty participants were surveyed before and after the FLOSS program.
  • Surveys assessed faculty's views on classroom equity, inclusive teaching knowledge, confidence, and community belonging.

Main Results:

  • Faculty shifted from attributing student deficits to individual characteristics to recognizing environmental or teaching-related factors.
