At the hospital where I work we must complete a series of modules annually that include bias training, but nothing on the intense level of your survey and the Diversity Science manual. The concept of a Sterotype Threat was new to me, and I wonder about its efficacity. Getting an African-American to overcome the threat of undervaluing their intellect or a woman to not fall into a Im not a leader mindset seem like complicated phenomena that can best be overcome by personal achievement. Still I understand that negative stereotypes of have a negative effects on every level in healthcare, and something more structured needs to be done.

I appreciated the learning experience for what it was. I learned that even if you dont know it yet, the stereotype can affect you in your performance and goals. I liked how there were 4 examples of different people who face different stereotypes.

I thought this was a pretty good learning experience that can help familiarize people with what it is. I didnt get much out of it for me, but can see how I could easily help others.

I enjoyed the course. I think it did a great job of naming what stereotype threat is, what some concrete examples look like, and how to manage it in the workplace and to help others who might be experiencing it. It was very practical and helpful.

I thought it was good. It didnt feel long at all and the videos went at a reasonable pace. I thought the section on how to combat stereotype threat in myself and others was useful.

I enjoyed this experience and think that the lesson has just the right amount of interactive sections to keep viewers engaged and make sure they are still paying attention during video content. This was a helpful lesson and I believe that others would value seeing this as a training course.

I thought this was extremely insightful and not something thay let people talk about. I actually had never had a learning experience about this and felt.like it is something that I will think about going forward as I never realized this could be why I have had issues with performance in the past. I really liked the different examples and being able to follow the same four characters throughout the lesson.

I thought it was very well done and easy to understand. I appreciate that the video went into detail about four different types of stereotype threat. It helped me to understand that every person can be affected.

The course was presented in a very calm voice which gave a more relaxed atmosphere to the experience. Each module was informative and packed with relevant information without it being too wordy and overwhelming.

This course reminded me so much of college life for me. I went to a private Catholic college and most of the time, I was the only person of color in the class. I remember feeling overwhelmed at times and the course was very relevant to me, even now. I never knew there was a term stereotype threat, but now I do and I know the triggers for it.

I think it was well put together and an easy way to learn about a topic I imagine many people dont know much about, but have experienced themselves.

I was actually surprised by the quality of the training - it was engaging, interesting, and not too repetitive or basic, like that type of training often is. And I can see that a lot of people could benefit from it, because stereotype threat is not something that is talked about so much, at least not among the groups I belong to - even though I can see now that so many people can be affected by it, basically because there are so many negative stereotypes in this world.

I found it educational and learned new information related to stereotypes and how they can impact our own anxiety levels.
