Abstract
Using a case study and a series of activities given over the course of a semester, preservice teachers answered discussion based questions to uncover implicit biases. This study was done to help preservice teachers begin to talk about the impact of racial biases in special education. The case study is about a Black boy named Tay who engaged in a counting collections task in a kindergarten classroom. The responses were coded using the FAIR framework (Louie et al., 2021) in order to categorize the preservice teachers’ noticings. Class discussions and practicum experiences occurred over the course of these activities to see how noticings would change based on these. Modifications for future studies are included to look further into how to guide preservice teachers to anti-deficit noticings.
