The Education Innovation Laboratory

Grant Year: 2017

Roland Fryer will direct the research program of the Harvard Education Innovation Laboratory (EdLabs). EdLabs will undertake a number of research studies, including an evaluation of an incentive program for school principals, an assessment of how performance data can be used by school leaders to improve student learning, and a survey designed to discover what factors differentiate those individuals who rise out of poverty from those who continue to live in poverty. The project’s findings will appear in a series of reports, papers, and policy briefs.
