dc.description.abstractMinority history education can support perspective-taking which is linked to decreasing stereotypes and prejudice. A pre-test post-test randomized control trial study with 114 pre-service teachers was conducted to examine the role of queer history instruction to improve learners’ self-reported perspective-taking toward LGBTQ + minorities and knowledge of queer history. Participants in the Edmonton Queer History App (vs. control) condition learned significantly more and reported higher levels of perspective-taking towards both sexual orientation (SO) and gender identity (GI) minority members. Mediation analysis showed that learning outcome explained the effect of the app condition on the increase of perspective-taking towards SO (but not GI).
