I have become a bit obsessed with sitting on my back deck having the Cornell Merlin bird ID app tell me who my winged friends are nearby based on sound. I encourage folks to try it! Awesomely distracting.

Hey, #STEM Ed Researchers who want to up your quant/stats/measurement game, I’m sorry, but #NSF decided to terminate our methods institute program. I am thankful for the nearly 100 scholars with whom our mentor team has worked! Peace out.

I’m teaching a grad class on K12 Education Policy this summer. It’s only taught once every three years, so it’s time for an update. What should future education leaders know about all the changes that are going on? I’m looking for academic articles, long reads, book chapters, videos, etc. Thanks!

“The Institute of Education Sciences (IES) is now left with fewer than 20 federal employees, down from more than 175 at the start of the second Trump administration. It’s not clear how IES can operate or even fulfill its statutory obligations set by Congress.” hechingerreport.org/proof-points...

I’ve decided that I feel grief. I’ve used and studied modeling methods with NCES data since 1992. That’s 33 years. I’m sorry for all of those grieving with me, especially for those who have lost their livelihoods with it. It’s just wrong.

Oh, and here’s my answer. Thank you, AERA.

AERA@aeraedresearch.bsky.social · last yr.

AERA has just learned that all restricted-use NCES data licenses will be cancelled, possibly as early as March 20. We urgently request that all AERA members and others in the research community with restricted-use licenses take these two actions: www.aera.net/Research-Pol...

Congratulations, Jing!

Cara Jackson@carajackson.bsky.social · last yr.

Congratulations! 🎉

So, a question: for those entities that hold restricted data licenses with an MOU signed w NCES, this SSO wants to know: 1) is it now a free-for-all with these data? Or 2) you should use cease and desist any analysis because there is no longer a suppression review approval mechanism?

Thinking of all those educational researchers who may find themselves unemployed soon. I hope this could be a silver lining of the #EduSky storm.

Cara Cahalan Laitusis@claitusis.bsky.social · last yr.

One more I would add for those who are out of work and used to teach. Apply for a leave replacement teaching job. It is a way to help temporarily, even substitute teachers are needed. I did a #schoolpsych leave replacement in 2023 and it changed my thinking for the better. It was a midlife gap year.
