EdResearch Advisory Board
ELEVATING THE VOICE OF EDUCATORS TO SHAPE RESEARCH FOR REAL-WORLD IMPACT
Educators play a critical role in shaping the direction and ensuring the usefulness of EdResearch briefs. EdResearch and Transcend have partnered to form a year-long Advisory Board, engaging people working at the school and system level to share their perspectives with EdResearch brief authors and staff members and directly contribute to the knowledge-creation process. This unique opportunity empowers educators who are often left out of traditional research processes to actively shape and refine education research. By fostering a participatory approach, the Board will contribute to the democratization of evidence and create more inclusive, relevant, and impactful education initiatives.
