The Learning Policy Institute conducts and communicates independent, nonpartisan, high-quality research to improve education policy and practice. Working with policymakers, researchers, educators, and community groups, the institute will advance evidence-based policies that support empowering and equitable deeper learning for each and every child. The national move toward broader adoption of deeper learning outcomes will benefit from connecting practitioners, policymakers, and stakeholders at the local, state, and federal levels with the ideas, research, resources, and actions needed to imbue and support it in the education system from preschool through college and career readiness.
