In her research keynote Tipton will reflect on her work as a statistician developing methods to improve the external validity of high internal validity designs.
In the first of two second-day workshops at the Willa Cather Dining Complex, Red Cloud A, Tipton will provide an overview of the methods behind the Generalizer, a free web tool that can be used to design sample recruitment plans in education studies, including K-12 and higher education.
