Current and Ongoing Projects

Overview of a Few Current Projects:

As stated on the ERPAS homepage, the underlying purpose of all ERPAS projects is to enhance educational equity. This is certainly a broad goal, so each ERPAS project therefore has more specific goals and research questions. The following summarizes a few current projects that ERPAS team members are involved with. 

• We continue to work with schools, school districts and education-based nonprofit organizations to support students' learning. One current example is through program evaluation work with Book Harvest, an education nonprofit with programs offered throughout North Carolina and nationally. 

• We continue to implement and evaluate programs we have developed that are designed to support students, families, and professional educators. In most years, we have projects focusing on more than one of these programs. 

• Through our continued work in the area of internationalization within school and educational psychology, we are currently collecting relevant data, examining the topic through critical frameworks, and writing both empirical and conceptual papers. For a general overview about internationalization as well as potential resources for those interested in the topic, click here. For even more information about internationalization, including its relevance to social justice and educational equity, please check out some of our recent publications on this topic.

Ongoing Work:

• We have an active team with many projects that take place each year. One ongoing activity related to our work is writing and publishing scholarly articles that document our projects, as well as presenting results of our work to a range of different audiences.
