Building the Research Infrastructure to Conduct Large-Scale Quantatitive Studies of Education Policy and Practice

该计划旨在通过美国教育研究协会建立一个教育统计分析基础设施，以对教育政策和实践进行科学的量化研究。该计划为实地研究的研究人员提供1.5万至3.5万美元的小额赠款，并为研究人员在进行统计研究时居住在联邦机构的研究人员提供奖学金。这笔赠款的重点是建设对国家和国际大规模数据集进行分析的能力。该提案包括资助联邦机构研究员、博士后研究员、小额助学金、培训、助学金和智库解决联邦机构关注的问题的活动。这些赠款由一个活跃的管理委员会管理，该委员会由17名杰出的研究人员组成，他们来自与教育、科学、数学和心理学相关的广泛领域。

This program seeks to build, through the American Educational Research Association, an educational education statistical analysis infrastructure to conduct scientific quantitative studies of education policy and practice. The program awards small grants of $15 to $35 thousand to researchers for field initiated studies and awards fellowships for researchers to reside in federal agencies while conducting statistical studies. The focus of this grant is the building of capacity to conduct analysis of large-scale national and international datasets. The proposal includes activities for funding Federal Agency Fellows, Postdoctoral Fellows, Small Grants, Training, Grants, and Think Tanks for issues of concern to federal agencies. The grants are administered by an active Governing Board composed of 17 prominent researchers from a wide range of fields related to education, science, mathematics, and psychology.
