CRESST @
NCME + AERA

CRESST researchers will present at this year’s NCME and AERA meetings on a variety of topics, from the challenges of scaling tests for small populations, to a survey of research on using an iPad to teach preschoolers measurement concepts, to the effect of feedback on learner behavior and performance in digital gaming. Over 20 CRESST researchers, including the ELPA21 program team, will be in attendance participating as authors, chairs, instructors, presenters, and speakers in over 25 events.

You are also cordially invited to the UCLA Education and CRESST reception at the 2019 AERA Annual Meeting.
