Shouting into the twittersphere to ask whether anyone who's attending #AERA23 has more info about childcare for infants?? It obviously has not been offered since 2019 but that's all I can figure out. no replies so far from the (presumably very busy) conference team 🙃

We at @AnnenbergInst published a short paper on how we managed to assess Head Start children via Zoom (!) during the pandemic!
@leiahjgthomas put literal blood, sweat, and tears into this work and it turned out phenomenally. Go take a read!

Last year, we measured executive function, literacy, and numeracy skill development among Head Start kids (3-, 4-yr olds). Now we get to share our findings! 🎉🎉

this paper is the first I've ever submitted to an econ journal. What a great learning experience! We got detailed, encouraging, and super helpful feedback.

an added bonus is the summary the journal provides (see link below). wonderful for increasing accessibility of research. https://t.co/mt5o...

#AEFP2021 attendees-are you all "zoomed out"? tired of staring at your own face? 😫

I recommend spending 30 mins to review AEFP posters. many submitted by students who have poured in countless hrs of work.

lots of posters w/zero comments that could use your feedback!🙃
November 21, 2024 at 11:28 PM
hello? is this thing on?? 🤔 virtual #AEFP2021 means we can all attend on the last day rather than having to worry about catching flights. 😉 Gracie says see you all on zoom in a few mins! #PetsofAEFP @aefpweb
