In this interactive webinar, a panel of state education leaders will share their experiences, decisionmaking processes, and lessons learned around selecting and implementing ELIs statewide. In addition, Eboni Howard, PhD, a managing researcher with REL Southwest at American Institutes for Research, will provide an overview of the research base behind ELIs and guide the conversation. Participants will gain a better understanding of the types of ELIs available and the benefits and challenges associated with adoption and implementation of each.
