The call for proposals is now open for the 2019 MSAN Institute on Equity Leadership and Cultural Competence being held April 15-16 at the Concourse Hotel in Madison.
Through play-testing in classrooms, close to 600 students from 17 Wisconsin schools and 30 teachers helped bring to life a video game that teaches state history, “Jo Wilder and the Capitol Case.” Created in the spirit of The Wisconsin Idea, the game is a joint venture of many partners, including WCER’s Field Day Lab and Wisconsin Public Television.
Students, research teams and principal investigators are invited to present at the 2019 UW-Madison Education Research Poster Fair. Submit a new or existing poster about research findings related to pre-K through adult education.
WCER introduces the Center for Research on Early Childhood Education, or CRECE (cray-say). “Crece” in Spanish means, “it grows.” And that’s exactly what CRECE Director Beth Graue plans to do with this innovative research center that is intended to bridge the gap between early childhood education research and practice.
