Abstract
Student engagement, cultural identity and voice in school have been shown to have measurable influence on student learning. Measures of student perceptions of their teachers’ cultural engagement, teaching practices and their own voice in schooling are included in this paper. Data from 822 students of teachers who participated in a simulated teaching environment intended to improve equitable teaching practices revealed significant pre-post changes for measures of voice and engagement. The data also showed significant differences by gender and ethnicity.
