“[Teachly] has allowed me to be more systematic about who I call on in class–both to cut back on calling on frequent hand-raisers and to encourage the quiet students to talk more”

“Teachly has been an amazing source for me…I now am far more conscious about waiting those extra few seconds to call on a person who would add diversity.”

“Teachly was of tremendous assistance to us. It really provided a roadmap and gave us visibility into who we needed to draw out during the course of our discussions. It proved to be an invaluable tool in the classroom.”

“Seeing my own bias…was new, surprising and useful.”
 
— Nicco Mele
Lecturer, Harvard Kennedy School
“Teachly showed that I was calling on men 20% more often than women…I adopted a practice of starting each class by calling on a woman, sending a signal to the entire class. Within three weeks, there was an equal number of women and men participating in class discussions, but the most important benefit was that the discussion was richer and the class culture felt more trusting.”
 
— Rand Wentworth
Louis Bacon Senior Fellow in Environmental Leadership and Adjunct Lecturer, Harvard Kennedy School
“Teachly is a tool that solves a problem I have and is a concrete way for faculty to signal they care about creating an inclusive classroom environment.”
