BRIEFING: Education R&D: Innovating Solutions for Today’s Challenges and Tomorrow’s Opportunities

The Alliance for Learning Innovation (ALI) will host a Congressional briefing to highlight the significant social, economic, and competitive benefits of sustained federal funding in education research and development (R&D). Amid historic lows in student academic outcomes and record-high absenteeism, the nation's education R&D infrastructure is essential for informing and advancing evidence-based teaching and learning practices. This briefing will bring together federal, state and non-profit leaders to discuss how education R&D can be used to address current educational challenges and pave the way for future educational improvements.
