Research Broker Network Meeting
About the Meeting
The Center for Research Use in Education is rethinking research for schools. As part of its efforts to understand and improve the relationship between research and practice, we are convening individuals and organizations that serve as key brokers between the two communities. The Research Broker Network Meeting was held virtually January 25-29, 2021. This convening aims to provide an opportunity for those most influential in linking research and practice to share strategies, network, learn about the Center's work, and set an agenda for learning, policy, and research.
