Microagressions

Sometimes the little comments and snubs made in class can stunt a student's educational progress. The comments, looks, or snubs could be characterized as microaggressions. Sometimes they are totally unintentional, like calling a student by another name, OR Calling upon the Asian students in Mathematics class when no one answers a question. Another example of microagression takes us to educator talk online or in the common area.
