The first ManyClasses study is released! Final registered report now in press at AMPPS and preprint posted at psyarxiv.com/4mvyh/
What's it all about? Hey, we're glad you asked… 1/19
We wish we had more time to recruit additional schools and teachers to participate, but the
competition rules really constrained our timeline. We’re sincerely grateful for the collaboration
from IU, Florida, UNL, and South Fayette School District.
No one from the ManyClasses team is active on X anymore (it took us a couple days just to find
our login 🙃), but we’re interested in constructive feedback! Feel free to reach out to us via email
with any reactions or comments.
I'm really excited about this new paper with @BeckyAGilbert, @nikbpetrov, and Björn Luchterhandt.
We describe an approach to automatically simulation the behavior of experiment participants and discuss how this tool can aid in the development of more robust experiments.

We are recruiting volunteer analysts to estimate the analytical robustness of social science by re-analyzing findings from 100 papers.
We need hundreds of analysts who can become co-authors and get paid.

"Can a study of a single intervention in a single course say much of anything? Maybe not to anyone except instructors who teach similar courses. Are all the controls set up correctly? It’s hard to know, if you haven’t been trained in education research."

In his latest blog, @IESResearch Director Mark Schneider asked for feedback about moving away from the term "conceptual replication." He even promised bonus points. Here's a 🧵 summary of my reply to go.usa.gov/xeDZB ...
