Fact Sheets
The Knowledge Forum Ed-Talks served to catalyze compelling conversations between education researchers and policymakers. In addition to their talks, each scholar created a factsheet that were given to all February Forum Ed-Talk attendees. The factsheets were used to provide context for the Ed-Talks and to convey that the ideas presented in the Ed-Talks stemmed from a deep pool of research.
