Enabling collaborative research at scale: The Economic Education Network for Experiments (EENE)
Abstract
Economic education research has taught us a considerable amount about pedagogy and student learning, but much of what we know comes from studies and experiments run at single institutions in classes taught by just one or two instructors. As a result, educators must contend with two major drawbacks in most studies: low statistical precision and limited generalizability. Multi-site coordinated experiments are a way forward in pushing the boundaries of knowledge in education and pedagogy, but such studies encounter recruitment and coordination challenges. The authors of this article discuss the Economic Education Network for Experiments (EENE), a new organization dedicated to overcoming these challenges and building a sustainable and thriving community of economic education researchers from around the world working on large-scale collaborative projects.
