Personal highlight from @aefpweb.bsky.social conference: reconnecting w/ my HIGH SCHOOL econ teacher John Strudwick, who was there presenting research.
He included a module on development & education in an otherwise std intro econ course. Decades later, it still has me asking questions. #AEFP2026
A panel of RPP leaders share information on research-practice partnerships in Illinois.
Dr. Sarah Cashdollar shares research on dual credit.
Dr. Shereen Oca Beilstein and Dr. Sebastian Kiguel share research on teacher shortages.
The IWERC team was out in force at the @aefpweb.bsky.social conference in Chicago. We shared findings and reflections on attendance, teacher shortages, career development opportunities, rural higher education, dual credit, early childhood research/policy, and more.
Back to work after a great @aefpweb.bsky.social conference with this dope mug
It is always a delight to be in community with the @aefpweb.bsky.social community! This conference was extra special with the chance to check out some Chicago museums with my fam. If we didn’t get a chance to talk or connect please reach out! Would love to hear folks’ feedback on how AEFP26 went.
Fun times!!
Congratulations @dbassok.bsky.social on an amazing program! 🎉 I learned so much from the sessions at #AEFP2026 and I'm thrilled to see the Policymakers & Practitioners community thriving. Truly a blessing of Golden Unicorns 😉
Great conference with great people. @dbassok.bsky.social killed it, obviously. Can’t wait to see even bigger and better next year! (No pressure, @jscottclayton.bsky.social)
