As a result of the persistent attempt to find out why American education is failing to fulfill many children's potential and many societal needs, many of the elements needed to answer the question have been identified and some of those have been successfully implemented. However, work must continue on identifying remaining pieces of the puzzle and, especially, on how to assemble the pieces into a coherent whole. Succeeding will require the construction of conceptual and structual bridges between scholars working at different distances from educational applications.NSF's draft stategic plan includes the following long term outcomes, under the heading of "Ideas":* Partnerships connecting discovery to innovation, learning, and societal advancement.* Research and education processes that are synergistically coupled.The WPA and APA symposia proposed herein should contribute meaningfully to achieving those ends buy bringing together distinguished scholars with expertise in diverse areas of psychology (evolutionary, social, cognitive, cross-cutural) and education research and policy, to stimulate discussion about how to improve education research and policy, to stimulate discussion about how to improve education by effectively integrating research and policy.

由于坚持不懈地试图找出为什么美国教育未能满足许多儿童的潜力和许多社会需求，回答这个问题所需的许多要素已经确定，其中一些已经成功实施。 然而，必须继续努力查明余下的部分，特别是如何将这些部分组合成一个连贯的整体。 成功将需要在与教育应用不同距离的学者之间建立概念和结构桥梁。NSF的战略计划草案包括以下长期成果，在“思想”标题下：* 将发现与创新，学习和社会进步联系起来的伙伴关系。 研究和教育过程是协同耦合的。这里建议的WPA和阿帕研讨会应该有助于实现这些目标，将具有不同心理学领域专业知识的杰出学者聚集在一起（进化、社会、认知、跨文化）和教育研究与政策，以激发关于如何改进教育研究和政策的讨论，激发关于如何通过有效整合研究和政策来改善教育的讨论。
