I have a new VoxDev Lit launching this week on education technology👇 This area has lots of froth, but also some very promising evidence on tech use (on teaching, assessments, information) across K-12. Pulling this together was fun (with Phil Oreopoulos and @lnavarrosola.bsky.social ).

what i missed most when i left econtwitter was a way to crowdsource... I'm looking for a compelling multi-arm RCT where it was not obvious which treatment would work better or the answer is ex post surprising. goal is to show non-researchers that their priors can be wrong, using an A/B example. 📈📉
