EVENTS

RPP ARTIFACT CHATS
NNERPP members only

When: Thursday, June 27, at 2 pm ET / 1 pm CT / 11 am PT

We invite you to join us for the fourth installment of our “share and tell” workshop series called RPP Artifact Chats where we discuss various RPP artifacts, organized around an in-progress RPP Sustainability Framework.

Topic: Logic Models
For this installment, we invite you to bring your RPP logic model (RPP-wide or for a specific project) and join us in a discussion on how to go about creating these models and why they might be important. We will also share and talk through a theory of action template that has been used by NNERPP members previously. We hope to see you there!

NNERPP aims to develop and support RPPs in education in order to improve the connection between research, policy, and practice.

NNERPP is made possible by the generous funding support of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, William T. Grant Foundation, The Annie E. Casey Foundation, and The Wallace Foundation.
