Interwencje redukujące zagrożenia stereotypem w środowisku edukacyjnym
Interventions for reduction of stereotype threat in the school environment

Summary/Abstract: Stereotyping can impede student educational achievement. This article describes intervention intended to reduce its threat in the school environment. The first part of this article explains how stereotypy threatens students from three angles: those threatened by stereotypy, development of the threat and its negative consequences. The article presents interventions to combat stereotyping. Four types are discussed: targeted on society and school, behaviour of teachers, test conditions and focused on students. Results demonstrate effective, often very simple and inexpensive solutions to reduce the threat of stereotype to students.
