Instrument Overview
This assessment is designed to assess the mindsets of mathematics teachers at the middle and high school levels in teaching mathematics to African American students. The purpose of the survey is to provide an indication of (a) teachers‘ mindsets that may be productive or unproductive in supporting the mathematical learning of African American students; (b) teachers‘ awareness of and attribution for success and challenges in African American students‘ learning of mathematics; and (c) teachers‘ feelings of self-efficacy and/or support in enacting equitable instruction.
