A Presentation from EPIC

Education Policy Innovation Collaborative’s Faculty Director, Katharine Strunk, speaks to the Michigan Literacy Commission

DATE:  June 25, 2021

Katharine Strunk, Faculty Director of EPIC, discussed findings from their Read by Grade Three Year One report.

The first year evaluation of the Read by Grade Three Law asks four main questions:

  1. How was the Read by Grade Three Law formed and intended to work?
  2. How is the Read by Grade Three Law being implemented in Michigan? Does implementation vary across populations and places and, if so, why?
  3. Does the Read by Grade Three Law improve the achievement and attainment of Michigan’s students? Is there heterogeneity in this effect across populations and places?
  4. Is this policy an effective use of resources?

EPIC works with state and district partners to create a targeted research agenda to learn which reform strategies are most effective, where, when and for whom.
