TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyze rates of case dismissal against felony arrestees by race and find higher rates of dismissals for blacks for the subset of crimes that rely on police to make snap judgments.
Abstract: Prior research has produced conflicting evidence of racial profiling during traffic stops. We instead analyze rates of case dismissal against felony arrestees by race. Superficial bias based on "unobservables" should be reduced because of the evidentiary requirements and nonnegligible costs of filing charges. Nonetheless, using data from over 58,000 US felony cases from 1990 to 1998, our probit analysis finds higher rates of dismissals for blacks for the subset of crimes that rely on police to make snap judgments. This suggests there may be more aggressive policing of blacks in these situations. Case dismissal rates are also elevated for both whites and blacks when blacks are underrepresented on local police forces.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present one high school teacher's facilitation of science discussions while supported by a dialogic discussion structure that was collaboratively developed through professional-development workshops, and provide a real-time teaching tool for teachers working toward integrating inquiry-based science discussions in their classrooms.
Abstract: Why is it so hard to get students talking in science class? Who is responsible? Are the students unwilling to speak in class? What kinds of supports are helpful for in-the-moment teaching during classroom discussions in science? We present one high school teacher’s facilitation of science discussions while supported by a dialogic discussion structure that was collaboratively developed through professional-development workshops. Our findings provide a real-time teaching tool for teachers working toward integrating inquiry-based science discussions in their classrooms.
