The Power and Possibilities of Research Methodologies and Measurement for Public Good: Narratives Exploring Equity and Inclusion in Educational Research

• In Event: The Power and Possibilities of Research Methodologies and Measurement for Public Good: Narratives Exploring Equity and Inclusion in Educational Research

Abstract

In the 2019 AERA Presidential Address, Dr. Amy Stuart Wells challenged researchers to “reimagine education and how it is measured. We need to reexamine what and who is defined as deviant, and excluded. We need to connect the research to the practice.” In response to this call-to-action to reconceptualize how and why research is conducted, the Division D Equity and Inclusion Committee has organized a panel of speakers who will examine equity, inclusion, and social justice in relation to educational measurement and research methodologies, and how those implications for educational research matter in educational praxis.
