Abstract

Hazelton High at REST, a simulation containing two digitized scenarios from the Racial Ethical Sensitivity Test (REST). The REST, a video assessment, is a valid measure of an educator’s ethical sensitivity for racial and gender intolerant behaviors in school settings (Brabeck et al., 2000). A comparison study was conducted between the simulation and the video assessment. This report discusses the design of Hazelton High at REST and its influence on participant responses. A performance-based assessment was embedded and analyzed according to the REST interview protocol to determine recognition of ethical violations. Post-simulation prompts were analyzed for emergent themes concerning an effect on responses. Qualitative analyses suggest likely ethical behaviors of preservice and inservice science educators. The goal of the mixed-method study was to determine if a simulation could affect preservice and inservice science teacher ethical sensitivity to instances of racial and gender intolerance when compared to the video assessment.
