New paper coming out soon! Do you think instructional quality mediates the associations between teacher math anxiety and student outcomes? I bet you’ll never guess the answer!!

I was on an IES 305A review panel this year and got this today following up on the cancellation of panels last week. I’m taking this to mean panels will not be rescheduled at all and that 305A awards likely won’t be made.
I reviewed some critically important proposals. This is truly awful.
