Research consistently concludes no short-run impact of the CTC expansion on employment. Please, please, please stop making me/others recite the literature and just update your priors.

Hi #EconSky,
Not sure if the Starter Pack party's over, but I've made an Econ Starter Pack of Starter Packs! 😄
It's a work in progress, so I may have missed some. Let me know if there's anything to add—DMs are open!

At today's #2024APPAM Rossi Award Lecture, I’ll argue the substantial impact of open-science practices has been far too narrow.
It’s time to adapt & adopt open-science practices—especially
preregistration—for quasi-experimental designs (QEDs).

How should schools address chronic absenteeism given other headwinds?
In the current Kappan, I advocate combining local attendance-barrier data with continuous-improvement processes privileging aligned interventions that are evidence-based, lower-cost, & scalable.
