A Decade in the Paranoid World of US Education Research, Part 1: The Scoldings

Richard Phelps

Nonpartisan Education Review, 2019, vol. 15, issue 1, 1-25

Abstract: This article describes scoldings I endured during one decade working in the education research "industry," for contract research firms serving a range of education organizations, from local school districts to international agencies, and for educational test development firms. Ten scoldings are described one-by-one in some detail in the Appendix. Immediately below, I summarize the scoldings in three ways: by their common characteristics; their effects (i.e., "lessons learned"); and the implications of those effects.
