Velez, Melissa; Sahni, Sarah; Rulf-Fountain, Alyssa; Gamse, Beth – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2014
One of the primary obstacles facing education researchers today is the struggle to obtain student-level data from states, districts, and schools. Researchers typically face one of two scenarios; they must either (1) work with contractors hired by the state or district to handle data requests who can be prohibitively expensive or (2) invest…
