Overview
The National Education Policy Center at the University of Colorado Boulder produces and disseminates high-quality, peer-reviewed research that informs education practice and policy discussions. This grant supports the formation of a working group to advance the Center’s shared system work in school systems and to conduct a study to investigate how equity is being advanced. The Center hopes to develop a clear picture of what renovated public systems look like, identify the steps needed to move in that direction, and create a narrative about shared systems’ merits and pathways.

Grants to this Grantee
for support of an open access scientific teaching course
The University of Colorado Boulder is facilitating a multiorganization collaboration to develop, evaluate, and disseminate a digital, open-access scientific teaching course for college science instructors that fully integrates an AJEDI (anti-racist, just, equitable, diverse, and inclusive) approach to teaching. With this grant, the team will use an open pedagogy approach that draws on diverse instructor and student voices to co-create the course, comprising a set of self-guided modules designed to equip instructors with the tools and mindsets to create active and inclusive learning environments.

for support of a research hub that focuses on youth organizing
The National Education Policy Center, a nonprofit education research center housed at the University of Colorado Boulder, supports the Research Hub for Youth Organizing and Education Policy. In order to advance education justice, the hub conducts research and shares results and analyses with youth-organizing groups and coalitions. The goal of these efforts is to uplift and centralize the voices of marginalized youth to sustain a movement dedicated to improving education systems. (Strategy: Tie-Off)
