<td style="padding:0 0 20px"><font style="font-size:12px" color="#000000" face="arial,verdana,helvetica">Join us for the second in a series of three Webinars discussing the Measures of Effective Teaching Project grants program. This second webinar will describe the data that will be available to grantees, including student achievement data, classroom video and scored observation data, and student survey data. Prospective grantees also will learn how to use currently available ICPSR resources to plan research and how to access and analyze MET data within ICPSR’s virtual data enclave. There will be ample time for Q&A after the presentation.
<br>
<br><i>The National Academy of Education, in partnership with the University of Michigan’s Institute for Social Research, is pleased to announce the Measures of Effective Teaching (MET) Early Career Research Grants competition. This program will award up to 10 grants of $25,000 each to conduct a research study using the extensive Measures of Effective Teaching Longitudinal Database. In conducting this study, grantees will receive free technical assistance from members of the National Academy of Education and participate, at no cost, in a series of networking meetings aimed at building a new cadre of scholars interested in research on teaching. Eligibility for the grants program is limited to scholars who received their doctorate after August 31, 2007. Individuals working in a variety of disciplines, including, but not limited to education, economics, psychometrics, psychology, sociology, and statistics are encouraged to apply. Applications from members of under-represented groups are encouraged.</i></font></td>
