DID YOU KNOW?
Innovation Science for Education Analytics (ISEA) training program:
Of interest to education researchers, school district data analysts, and education technology employees who have some background in statistics: Applications for the Innovation Science for Education Analytics (ISEA) training program are now open! ISEA seeks to address the talent gap in AI machine learning and prepare education researchers to use advanced machine learning and natural language processing methods to extract meaningful insights from education data.
ISEA is currently recruiting the first cohort of fellows for the first year of the program, which will run from January 2024 through July 2024. Applications are due October 21, 2023. You can learn more here!

Presenter: Paula Arce-Trigatti, NNERPP
Topic: Annual Forum Remix: Strategic Communications
We are excited to present a remixed virtual version of some Annual Forum sessions! Join us for the first one to revisit Ann Searight Cristiano’s four “back of the envelope” questions pioneered at the University of Florida’s Center for Public Interest Communications. Together, we will think through how this framework may apply to partnership efforts.

CONNECTION OPPORTUNITY
Friends of NNERPP are sharing an invitation to connect around work on early warning indicators:
Hi! We are Rediet Abebe (Computer Science, Harvard/UC Berkeley) and Eos Trinidad (Education/Sociology, UC Berkeley), researchers studying early warning indicators (EWIs) and algorithms. We have studied EWI networks, EWI predictiveness, and reimagining machine learning in education. Given the important work of RPPs in this field, we are hoping to connect with you to learn about potential synergies in studying early warning systems. Both of us have individually studied different EWIs, from computer science and sociological perspectives, and would love to explore connections with you (totally non-committal). If you are interested or would like to learn more, you can reach us at rabebe@g.harvard.edu and eostrinidad@berkeley.edu. We look forward to connecting!
