Attending #AERA2025? 👀 Might I recommend adding this exciting Division C invited session focused on navigating ✨messy✨ educational research? Friday, April 25th 11:40am - 1:10pm MDT Colorado Convention Center Meeting Room Level, Room 102 tinyurl.com/26yk9g7h

Navigating educational research: Key decisions, challenges, and ethical choices in messy data collection and analysis

Here's what you can expect:
Educational research is "messy," especially when taking new and innovative approaches or adapting to the ever-changing political, social, cultural, and educational landscapes. This session provides opportunities for researchers to share the messiness of research, past challenges, and encourage scholars to instead feel empowered to think about innovative research practices.
Following a series of Pecha Kucha style presentations, audience members will participate in a brief workshop challenging them to embrace the messiness and challenges in their current projects.

Speakers:
- Dr. Carlton Fong
- Dr. Daniela Digiacomo
- Taylor Cummings, Ph.D. candidate
- Destiny Williams-Dobosz, Ph.D. candidate

Session chairs:
- Dr. Xiao-Yin Chen
- Dr. Korinthia D. Nicolai

Details:
Meeting Room Level, Level 102
Friday, April 25, 2025
11:40am to 1:10pm MDT
