Writing Actionable Insights: Turning Evidence into Clear, Usable Messages
Wednesday May 13, 2026 1:15pm - 2:30pm EDT
Session Description: Education research often fails to influence decisions because findings are communicated in ways that are accurate but not actionable. In this interactive workshop, participants will learn and practice evidence-based strategies for writing clear, concrete, and decision-ready insights that communicate what works and why, using real examples from education research. This session is designed for analysts, researchers, and education leaders who want their evidence to be understood, trusted, and used in practice.

Intended Audience: Data analysts or independent researchers; Service providers; Districts, charters or other local education agencies

Full Session: This session is at or near capacity. Please be sure to fill in every seat where possible.
