This 15-question survey, created by a  renowned US scholar of race and ethnicity, asks specifically about one's reactions to and interactions with persons of another race. It measures: 1. Diversity of contact (AAC&U curiosity), relativistic appreciation for differing others (AAC&U empathy), and comfort with difference (AAC&U openness).

Equity-Centered Assessment Instruments

According the Center for Urban Education, at USC, "The term “Equity-Mindedness” refers to the perspective or mode of thinking exhibited by practitioners who call attention to patterns of inequity in student outcomes. These practitioners are willing to take personal and institutional responsibility for the success of their students, and critically reassess their own practices. Practing Equity-Centered Assessment requires that practitioners are race-conscious and aware of the social and historical context of exclusionary practices in American Higher Education." 

In this collection, we highlight assessment tools that are designed to be explicitly conscious of race, ethnicity & the history of exclusionary practices in education, and therefore, to help the practitioner or the institution practice equity-minded assessment of student learning and the student experience.
