Connect with EDC at AERA 2024
We invite you to join EDC researchers and discuss our equity-focused research at the 2024 Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association (AERA) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The theme of this year’s meeting is “Dismantling Racial Injustice and Constructing Educational Possibilities: A Call to Action.”
AERA participants will explore our findings on social justice-focused data literacy, equity in computer science education, equitable mathematics learning, inclusive maker programs, and more.
