#EdData doesn't get better in a vacuum. In June, SPEND Initiative convened our first Working Group with @edfund.bsky.social — a day-long session with education finance researchers from universities, research organizations, and policy shops across the country:

Building the Data Researchers Actually Need: What We Heard From the Field
Over the past two posts, I’ve written about what education finance data cannot tell us: why we still don’t have a detailed understanding of the impact of $189.5 billion in ESSER spending, and the impo...

10 years ago, we set out to champion K-12 data interoperability. To celebrate, we built V1 of the State Data Standards Map—but 29 states are still unverified!
Help us reach all 50 states by Oct!

Project Unicorn State Data Standards Map
Project Unicorn is 10 years old! To celebrate this anniversary, we are releasing our new State Data Standards Map. This is a free, interactive resource designed to provide a clear view of how states are engaging with key education technology standards. The State Data Standards Map offers a high-level, at-a-glance resource to better understand the evolving K-12 education technology landscape. Whether you're an educator, policymaker, or solution provider, watch this video to explore the tool.

🧠LEARNING FACT: Some learning happens before learners can explain it. In sequence-learning tasks, people can improve through repeated exposure even without fully conscious knowledge of the pattern. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

🧠BRAIN FACT: Bilingual brains practice selection. Bilingual language control involves keeping two languages separate and selecting the intended one, which recruits brain systems used for control and monitoring. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

🧠LEARNING FACT: Misconceptions are not erased like chalk. Conceptual change often requires reorganizing prior beliefs, not merely adding correct facts on top of wrong ones. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

🧠BRAIN FACT: White matter is not just “wiring.” Myelin helps regulate the speed and timing of signals between brain regions, and evidence suggests it can be modified by experience. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

Way to go 👏 , Expanding Screening to Support Youth (ESSY) Whole Child screener, for adhering to my 📊 standards for reporting data to educators! Loved reading about it in your 📄 whitepaper! www.mdpi.com/2076-328X/16... #OTCD #EdData #EdChat #TellEWA

🧠LEARNING FACT: Easy learning can fool learners. People often judge learning by how fluent something feels in the moment, even when that feeling does not predict later recall well. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

🧠BRAIN FACT: Practicing skills shapes the brain. Taxi drivers with extensive navigation experience showed structural differences in the hippocampus, a region important for spatial memory. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

🧠LEARNING FACT: Drawing can be a learning tool, not just decoration. Learner-generated drawing can help students select, organize, and integrate information. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

🧠BRAIN FACT: You usually cannot tickle yourself because your brain predicts your own touch. When a sensation is self-produced, the brain partly cancels the expected result. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

🧠LEARNING FACT: Asking “why is this true?” can make facts stick. Elaborative interrogation helps learners connect new information to what they already know instead of storing it as an isolated sentence. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

📊#DataCommunicationObstacle🚨: Stereotypes = Group generalizations skew assessments of sources and findings. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

📊#DataCommunicationObstacle🚨: Outgroup (vs. ingroup) = Out-group messengers and data face extra skepticism regardless of quality. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

📊#DataCommunicationObstacle🚨: Escalation of commitment (sunk-cost effect) = Past investments push continued support for a failing view despite better data. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat

📊#DataCommunicationObstacle🚨: Affect heuristic = Fast feelings (e.g., fear, pride) substitute for analysis, making congenial claims feel “truer” than well-supported but affect-neutral ones. #AcademicLife #EdData #PhDchat
