From the organizers:

Education Leadership Data Analytics (ELDA) is the emerging domain of research, practice, and policy in education that focuses on bringing together three broad domains at the intersection of 1) Education Leadership, 2) Evidence Based Improvement Cycles, and 3) Data Science. The Education Leadership Data Analytics Summit at Teachers College, Columbia University is designed to bring together education and research leaders and innovators working at the intersections of individual overlaps of two or three of these three circles in the Venn diagram. The ELDA Summit is designed to bring participants together across a wide variety of fields in education who work collaboratively with or within schools and districts, know how to facilitate and lead capacity building conversations with educators using evidence and data to build trust and collaboration, and work with data through code, analytics, data mining and machine learning, and statistics.

We are happy to invite researchers and practitioners in the emerging space of Education Leadership Data Analytics (ELDA) to our first Education Leadership Data Analytics (ELDA) Summit. The event is free and open to the public. Due to limited seating, registration is required and will be accepted up to seating capacity on a first-come-first-served basis with a waiting list.
