Greetings!

Our Journey Communicating National Center Research Results:
15 Major Findings in 15 pages

Joe Stevens, Professor and Associate Dean for Faculty Development

This presentation describes work arising from the National Research and Development Center on Assessment and Accountability for Special Education, a seven-year project funded by the Institute of Educational Sciences (IES). My focus in the presentation is on meeting IES expectations in communicating research results. During our grant, IES shifted its priorities in disseminating research results to simpler, nontechnical presentations that would engage and connect with stakeholders in the field. I describe our journey and some of our challenges working with IES to accomplish this. I will also share 15 examples of the resulting products which turned out to be very well reviewed by IES and the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP). By the end of the presentation you will be able to answer the question, Did You Know?

Hope to see you there and in the future! The abstracts for the final session this academic year will be provided via email reminder a few days in advance, so stay tuned!

Best,
