Educators Face the Challenge of Helping Students Overcome Biases

As humans, we all have personal biases that shape our perceptions and interactions with others. For educators, helping students understand and overcome these biases can be a challenging task. Journalist and author Mónica Guzmán believes that building a muscle of curiosity is key to addressing biases and fostering open-mindedness in students.

In her book, “I Never Thought of It That Way: How to Have Fearlessly Curious Conversations in Dangerously Divided Times,” Guzmán emphasizes the importance of curiosity as a tool to reduce assumptions and improve understanding across divides. By fostering curiosity in ourselves and in students, we can navigate difficult conversations and build greater empathy and understanding.

In a video discussing this topic, Guzmán shares insights on how educators can help students develop the skill of curiosity. By encouraging students to ask questions, seek out different perspectives, and challenge their own assumptions, educators can create an environment that promotes critical thinking and empathy.

In today’s increasingly polarized world, the ability to navigate biases and engage in open-minded dialogue is more important than ever. Educators play a crucial role in helping students develop the skills and mindset needed to overcome biases and build bridges across divides. By fostering curiosity and promoting understanding, educators can empower students to navigate complex issues with empathy and compassion.
