Center for Effective School Practices


Executive Director: Cindy Blitz

Website: http://cesp.rutgers.edu

The Center for Effective School Practices (CESP) is dedicated to improving the educational attainment and preparation of all learners by connecting policy and practice with research-based evidence and innovation. Working collaboratively with a broad and diverse group of educational stakeholders, both locally and nationally, the primary objectives of CESP are:
1) to facilitate and support the translation of research findings into effective educational practices that benefit all students and all communities; and 2) to build the capacity of educators to collect, analyze, interpret, use, and share data to inform decisions and policies. To this end, CESP's researchers and staff conduct basic and applied research that informs educational policy and practice; supports the design, implementation, and evaluation of educational programs and initiatives; creates and organizes opportunities for educators to exchange views and ideas; and provides training and tools that are tailored to the specific needs of individuals, schools, districts, and communities in the mid-Atlantic region and beyond.

In addition, CESP is a partner in the Regional Educational Laboratory Mid-Atlantic (REL MA), sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education. In this role, the center engages in the investigation of best educational practices for school districts and state departments of education with the intention of promoting the use of research data to inform and guide education policy and decision making in the region.
