Creating Tools for Equitable Research and Development

Abstract

The EF+Math Program supports four Applied Research teams developing new tools for assessing and monitoring executive functioning and math skills for use in the field. Technical innovations developed by the Applied Research teams are meant to be modular solutions that can work across multiple learning systems and make student learning visible to guide actionable next steps for learning. Further, these innovations are specifically designed to increase the capacity of developers to provide reliable and useful data for Black students, Latinx students, and all students experiencing poverty. This panel discussion at the Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness conference features a moderator from the EF+Math Program, researchers from the four Applied Research teams, and the EF+Math Program’s Designing for Equity Manager, as they share their process in designing these new tools through an equity lens.
