OECD-U.S. Meeting on Evidence-Based Policy Research (EBPR) in Education
Sponsored by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Centre for Educational Research and Innovation, and the U.S. Department of Education's Institute of Education Sciences
April 19-20, 2004
The aim of the meeting is to explore how rigorous research can produce sustained, evidence driven advances in the effectiveness of education in OECD countries.
The meeting is the first in a planned series on EBPR in OECD countries. The primary but not exclusive emphasis at this event will be on randomized trials and associated forms of EBPR; subsequent events will have a different emphasis. Within the overall goal of advancing a research agenda that can bring sustained progress to education, the specific goals of the meeting are:
- To exchange experience on the definition and use of EBPR;
- To examine a possible set of criteria for assessing different types of EBPR in different contexts;
- To identify key issues for further exploration.
Meeting participants include Senior education officials and researchers from OECD member countries (by invitation).
