Translating Research to Action: Creating Texas-Sized Impact

Description:

Research universities offer promising solutions to our most persistent educational challenges. There’s just one problem: those ideas rarely make it to the educators, policymakers and families who need them most. In Texas, a statewide community of researchers, practitioners, and policy advocates have come together to bridge that gap and make a Texas-sized impact. Learn how these diverse constituencies are building common knowledge and common cause around barriers to student success, and are engaging community partners and policy advocates with research that is easy to find, understand and use.
