Recommended recording: The Evidence-to Policy Pipeline and the Role of Transparency

  • 1.  Recommended recording: The Evidence-to Policy Pipeline and the Role of Transparency

    Posted Mar 15, 2023 08:01 AM
    Hi! I watched "The Evidence-to Policy Pipeline and the Role of Transparency," a panel presentation from the recent Berkeley Initiative for Transparency in the Social Sciences (BITSS) Annual Meeting, and I learned a few things (e.g., the limitations of What Works Clearinghouse reports). Sharing the recording below in case others want to listen.
    The panel starts here.

    Note: I'm a big fan of education researcher Dr.Terri Pigott (one of the panelists), and I participated in a meta-analysis training co-taught by her at What Works Global Summit in 2019. Another What Works Global Summit is scheduled to occur in October 2023 in Ottawa. I hope similar training opportunities will be available at this iteration of What Works Global Summit, and maybe I'll see some of you there (I'm definitely going).
