ADVANCED INCLUSIVE R&D
Programs
Our Advanced Inclusive Research and Development (R&D) programs are designed to discover what works best for students across various settings. We create bold PreK-12 solutions—practices, methods, prototypes, and tools—to ensure all students receive the quality education they deserve.
We share the insights from these impactful teaching and learning solutions so that learners nationwide—in and outside the classroom—can thrive.
Assessment for Good aims to transform assessment to deliver accurate, meaningful data that ignites instruction and fosters a more student-centered experience – at the speed of teaching and learning.
EF+Math improves math outcomes by strengthening executive functioning skills that manage our attention, thoughts, emotions, and behavior.
Reading Reimagined develops foundational literacy skills in students who need on-going support tailored to their developmental stage.
AugmentED brings together expert teachers, researchers, and technologists to reimagine education for the AI era, developing and testing new teaching approaches and AI-powered tools to nurture every student’s potential.
We ground our approach in Advanced R&D and the science of learning.
Through focused, shorter multi-year cycles of innovation with clear, ambitious goals, AERDF brings together learners, educators, researchers, and developers from the beginning and throughout this process to find solutions to pressing education challenges. This approach provides the opportunity for educators, learners, and caregivers who are closest to pressing teaching and learning challenges to co-create the best solutions to support students.
Then, through partnerships and “bridges” in the ecosystem, we bring our new knowledge, insights, and solutions into the real world for others to carry forward and take to scale.
The result: scientific discovery and inventions of major breakthroughs that benefit PreK-12 teaching, learning, and assessment systems across diverse learning contexts.
