Are You What You Measure? Developing Measures for International Mobility – An Experiential Workshop

October 5, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm EDT

Register

Join the ‘Measures’ working group within the Education Abroad Professional Learning Community (EA-PLC) as they share their combined experiences about all things data. Consider this as a gift of time to dust off your data and measures hat and play in a workshop sandbox. The desire is to immerse ourselves as practitioners and scholars in a pan-Canadian conversation on data in international mobility: what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we even start making sense of what data to begin with.

Through exercises, we’ll explore scoping, scalability and sustainability of data so that one doesn’t lose oneself in things that don’t directly matter to the significant question. Our desire is to facilitate an opportunity for skills development in using data effectively, leveraging the value of persuasive, evidence-based arguments, and taking informed risks.

We look forward to exploring the measures world together!
