  • He began his career in education as an elementary and middle school science teacher, working for seven years in San Francisco schools. Before earning his Ph.D., Brian taught in the Stanford Teacher Education Program. Brian’s scholarship in this area has been published in a variety of peer-reviewed journals, including Science Education, The Journal of Research in Science Teaching, PLOS Biology, and Studies in the History and Philosophy of the Biological and Biomedical Sciences.Ĭurrently, he is the principal investigator of a NSF funded project (EHR Core Award #1660985, $1.29 million) that uses experimental, quasi-experimental, and qualitative research methods, to identify the cognitive, social, and educational factors that link the learning of human genetics to reductions in racial bias.

    By translating this research into frameworks that inform science instruction, curriculum development, and teacher education, Brian hopes to create a generation of researchers, teachers, and curriculum writers who know how to teach about human difference in a more socially responsible manner.

    His research explores how genetics education interacts with social-cognitive biases to influence how students make sense of complex biological and social phenomena. in science education from Stanford University. in teaching from the University of San Francisco, and a M.S. Donovan is a research scientist at BSCS Science Learning. Donovan shows how reformers employed white slavery narratives of sexual danger to clarify the boundaries of racial categories, allowing native-born whites to speak of a collective "us" as opposed to a "them." These stories about forced prostitution provided an emotionally powerful justification for segregation, as well as other forms of racial and sexual boundary maintenance in urban America.Brian M. About the BookDuring the early twentieth century, individuals and organizations from across the political spectrum launched a sustained effort to eradicate forced prostitution, commonly known as "white slavery." White Slave Crusades is the first comparative study to focus on how these anti-vice campaigns also resulted in the creation of a racial hierarchy in the United States.įocusing on the intersection of race, gender, and sex in the antiprostitution campaigns, Brian Donovan analyzes the reactions of native-born whites to new immigrant groups in Chicago, to African Americans in New York City, and to Chinese immigrants in San Francisco.
