Brief Biographical Sketch:
Andrew Estrada Phuong is a Chancellor’s Fellow, consultant, and program developer. He has a master's degree from Harvard and his mixed-methods research includes experimental designs and randomized control trials. Phuong studies how adaptive equity-oriented pedagogies and faculty development strategies reduce stereotype threat and enhance students’ academic achievement, growth mindsets, and psychosocial outcomes (e.g., motivation, self-efficacy, sense of belonging, inclusion, etc.). He has published his research and mobilizes it to lead pedagogy courses, professional teaching communities, student success programs, diversity initiatives, and pedagogical and professional trainings. Phuong has consulted with administrators, faculty developers, faculty, graduate and undergraduate instructors, teaching staff, businesses, post-docs, and K-16 teachers. He has taught over 10 courses at UCB and has conducted design-based-implementation research on 3000+ students and instructors in the Social Sciences, Humanities, and STEM. He has published and presented his work at conferences, symposia, and colloquia both domestically and internationally. Phuong has also designed and implemented a student success program that helped improve first-generation students' transition to Berkeley and psychosocial outcomes (e.g., resilience, persistence, sense of self-efficacy, and sense of belonging). He has collaborated with Cal’s Educational Opportunity Program, Apple, and several organizations to provide support with academics, mental health, and professional development. Here are examples of UC Berkeley courses where Phuong has helped facilitate instruction: Here's more information about Phuong's research: https://www.uncw.edu/jet/articles/Vol17_2/Phuong.pdf Past Classes(Clicking a class title will bring you to the course's section of the corresponding course catalog)O362: Advancing Equity and Excellence: Transforming Education Policy, Practice, and Reform in Splash Fall 18 (Nov. 04, 2018)
Through simulations and activities, students will learn about current issues in education research, teaching, policy, and reform. Students will also learn about cutting-edge research on adaptive equity-oriented practices conducted by the Design for Equity Lab. We will discuss how to address achievement gaps, opportunity gaps, access, and equity. By exposing students to multiple perspectives surrounding these issues, we hope students learn more about the root causes, institutions, and policies that perpetuate the current problems. We will further introduce and ask students to analyze various policies, teaching practices, organizations, and current ‘solutions’ through different viewpoints. Students will then work with the class to build upon the strengths and limitations of these approaches to reimagine public policy and improve the prospects for social change.
