💡 A new study from ISR, “Understanding Heterogeneous Patterns of Family Engagement With Educational Technology,” explores family support in multilingual households. Using a literacy app and text messaging program, researchers analyzed over 3,500 students and identified distinct engagement profiles.

After working on so many RCTs, it was really fun to write a descriptive paper that leveraged the rich data we had access to from our previous study. The full paper can be found here (journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.31…)

Grateful to @umisr for this write up about my recent paper in Educational Researcher with Ethan Scherer, @ProfJimmyKim , and Johanna Tvedt from @READSLab: isr.umich.edu/news-events/ne…

@leb112358 Woohoo!! You got this!!

Today is the day I submit my NIH K01 proposal! Please send good vibes, particularly those of high energy for the final push 😅🥰

Two great opportunities for BA/MA level folks to come do meaningful work with us at @YouthPolicyLab -- one is a data analyst role, and one is a fellowship focused on post-secondary ed/labor market outcomes in Michigan!

@MemeMedianMode @swarthmore I'll be there - would love to see you!

Excited to be traveling back to Philly for #AERA2024 tomorrow night. Started out doing education research @swarthmore as an undergrad so Philly has a special place in my heart. Don’t be a stranger if you’ll be there too!!

@catarm2010 et al leverage log data from an educational app, two-way text message records & in-depth interviews in Spanish and English to identify patterns of family engagement with educational technology myumi.ch/1b5bp

Great opp at @umisr for recent undergrads wanting to get into research! There is arguably no better place to do social science research than at U-M, in my biased opinion. Apps due Jan 31. isr.umich.edu/training-oppor…

@IshtiaqueFazlul @PublicHealthUGA @UGA_SPIA Congrats!!!

Delighted to share that I will join @PublicHealthUGA and @UGA_SPIA (jointly) as an assistant professor this fall. All my colleagues and mentors at @aysps, @GAPolicyLabs, @Mizzou, and @ColesCollege played an instrumental role in preparing me for this new adventure. 1/2

Very late breaking, but @AviFeller and I are looking for a 1 year postdoc, located at Harvard, to work on panel data and synthetic control methods. Details here: apply.interfolio.com/124413 Don't self-select out--lots of possibility here, with many different projects possible.

Day 2 is under way, and the 2023 CATIE scholars are hard at work on SMART-driven proposals for intervention research in the education sciences. Nothing compares to the in-person experience, but you don't have to miss out! Visit the CATIE resource hub: catie.space

@PaolaGuerreroR @tamu_tlac congratulations!!!!

Extremely happy to share that I'll join @tamu_tlac as an Assistant Professor of Early Childhood starting this fall! 🎉🎉🎉 I am grateful to all who have supported me in the exciting but challenging job market... And completely thrilled about what's next:
