The second combined NAECR Knowledge/Networking event of the fall explored how early childhood researchers have adjusted ways they initiate, maintain and address research partnerships in the time of COVID-19.
The Nov. 4 virtual conversation focused on how research relationships and collaboration have evolved in recent months during the pandemic — and some of the innovative ways they have overcome obstacles to forge ahead with their work.
Jim Bovaird, director of the Nebraska Academy of Methodology, Analytics and Psychometrics, led a Fall 2020 Methodology Applications Series presentation Oct. 23.

While there are distinct differences between the U.S. and Brazil, there are even more things the two countries have in common.
