Fig. 5: Comparing instructors’ and students’ expectations about inclusivity statements on syllabi.
From: Cultivating inclusivity in introductory undergraduate STEM course syllabi
Left: 33.7% of the n = 163 syllabi analyzed incorporates inclusivity statements (purple). This does not align with survey results reported on the right. Over 70% of respondents consider it important to have an inclusivity statement on their course syllabi, with 36.4% of students labeling it as “very important” (fuchsia) and 34.9% as “somewhat important” (pink). Only 17.8% of participants consider it “not important” (blue) and 10.9% are not sure (aquamarine).
