We’re motivated by something greater than the bottom-line. We believe in supporting both the health of the education system in the United States and the well-being of each and every student. So we make a point to share what we learn with others who are positioned to make a difference, too.
Measuring Students’ Social-Emotional Learning Among California’s CORE Districts: An IRT Modeling Approach
We analyzed the psychometric properties of items from California's CORE Districts' annual SEL survey.

We also discussed policy implications in using SEL measures among educators, administrators, policymakers, and other stakeholders.
