July 18: Join Us for a Webinar About Data from the Early Head-Start Child Care (EHS-CC) Partnerships Sustainability Study of 2022
|
|
The Early Head Start-Child Care (EHS-CC) Partnerships Sustainability Study of 2022 follows up on the National Descriptive Study (NDS) of EHS-CC Partnerships of 2016. The NDS of 2016 collected information about the 2015 EHS-CC Partnerships grantees and their child care partners (including child care centers and family child care providers) and the activities they engaged in to develop and maintain partnerships and meet the Head Start Program Performance Standards, assess their quality improvement needs, and support high quality caregiving and learning environments for infants and toddlers. The Sustainability Study of 2022 examines how partnerships from the first round of grants had fared as of 2022 and factors that supported or impeded partnership sustainability. [More] |

July 30: PEERS Webinar: Using ICPSR Tools and Data in Education Research Methods Courses
|
|
Are you teaching a research methods course and looking for a way to “spice up” the content? Incorporating real data can help students feel more connected to the material and give them valuable experience for embarking on their own future research projects. In this PEERS Data Hub Webinar, we will introduce participants to tools and resources available through ICPSR and provide suggestions for ways they could be used to convey content in a typical research methods course. In addition, there will be a brief introduction to the secondary data types represented in ICPSR’s collection. [Register]
