As stated by scholar OConner (2017), "Despite altruistic motives and a
desire by university faculty to create inclusive learning environments
in health sciences education, students from marginalized groups often
report experiences of distress from microaggressions, bias, and/or
exclusion in educational settings." To address this issue, the
presentation will explore diversity, equity, inclusion and social
justice in the learning environment through the lens of implicit
bias. Strategies to address implicit bias will also be provided.
