Launched in 2015, the @NYCSchools CS4All initiative sought to bring meaningful computer science learning experiences to all students across the system. Our new report describes the results: bit.ly/3OMYMak #CSEdWeek, #CS4All, #EdEquity, #CSForALL

Happy CSEdWeek! Check out the Research Alliance's new report on NYC's CS4All initiative, highlighting success, challenges, and lessons learned. bit.ly/3OMYMak #CSEdWeek, #CS4All, #EdEquity, #CSForALL, #NYCPS

Two Decades of NYC High School Admissions: Effects, Equity, and Experiences co-hosted by @AppleseedNy and the @FordhamLawNYC Feerick Center for Social Justice on November 18. This looks like a great event! bit.ly/3Z54H0p

The way we share education research isn't working for those who need it most. That's why we built the EdExchange – a 'town square' where researchers, educators, and policymakers can work together to improve schools. Learn more: annenberg.brown.edu/edexchange #EdExchange

"We are finding ways to ensure that community engagement is a core part of our ongoing studies–from including young people, teachers and parents as project advisors, to actually conducting research alongside these stakeholders." - @kathyhill444 Read more: bit.ly/3Yr87tZ

As described in @educationweek (“Students Want to Learn More About Careers. Will High Schools Step Up?”), there is growing interest in career-connected learning. Our new report examines NYC students' experiences with college and career advising. bit.ly/4eIcFRO

Despite much emphasis on college and career prep, high school advising remains an understudied topic. Our new report examines NYC students’ experiences with college and career planning, and how planning support differs across students and schools. bit.ly/4eIcFRO

Our new report on the participation and outcomes of students in the @expand_school STEM Options program highlights challenges that are relevant for many work-based learning initiatives. Read more: bit.ly/47D4BiY
