Introducing New Resources for Conducting Randomized Controlled Trials in Postsecondary Education

In this short video, MDRC Senior Fellow Michael Weiss introduces a set of free resources for conducting high-quality, efficient randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in postsecondary education that follow best open science practices and support cross-study analyses.

These resources are a project of The Higher Education Randomized Controlled Trial (THE-RCT) Network, a group of leading national experts in postsecondary research and policy. Network members help create, curate, and vet THE-RCT tools and materials; support the formation of field-wide norms for rigorous postsecondary research; and promote the use and dissemination of these resources.
