Building Capacity
DRDC works with other IERI researchers and program
staff to build capacity for the study of learning, instruction,
and achievement. For example, we:
- Collaborate with IERI investigators to develop designs, methods,
and analyses for bringing projects to scale.
- Identify conceptualizations of scale-up, characteristics of
promising interventions, and types of challenges researchers are
likely to encounter as they work to bring their projects to scale
- Work with IERI investigators to enhance educational models,
programs, and strategies (e.g., by organizing workshops and conferences,
and identifying and facilitating the use of new technologies)

- Identify common measures, data sets, and sites that can be shared
across projects
- Identify and encourage the use of cutting edge information technology
to strengthen and deepen connections for sharing knowledge among
IERI and other education researchers
- Help IERI researchers connect with practitioners, policymakers,
and parents to improve learning outcomes
- Expand the benefits of IERI work to other disciplines, working
with program staff to build a science of scale-up
