Description: | Co-Training Director: van den Broek, Paul The University of Minnesota's Interdisciplinary Training in Education Research (MITER) program aimed to develop education researchers able to apply experimental methodology and cognitive sciences to practical educational issues. Research themes within the program included experimental research methodology (such as standards-based assessment, continuous monitoring of student progress, experimental and quasi-experimental design with an emphasis on experimental designs, and longitudinal studies) and cognitive science as applied to educational issues (such as training in theories and data-gathering methods in education-related fields of cognition such as cognitive neuroscience, psycholinguistics, psychology of higher-order thinking and learning). List of Completed Fellows:Below is a list of the 17 fellows who received funding support from this award and completed the training program.
