Our Advisors

SEERNet works closely with experts in the learning sciences, cognitive psychology, data analytics, and classroom practice. Our Advisors are a valuable part of our network who help us ensure that our network goals reflect the reality of today's open science landscape while also advocating that we move this important work forward.

SEERNet is funded by the Institute of Education Science, with a deliberate intention to fund both DLPs and researchers, as well as a growing network connecting DLPs, researchers, and practitioners. It is called “SEERNet” in reference to IES’s SEER principles, a set of aspirations for educational research.

Together, Digital Promise and Empirical Education serve as the network hub with the purpose to grow, to engage emerging scholars and educators, and to synthesize the knowledge that the network produces.
