Reflecting on my early career working on USAID funded research. We developed tests to measure the impact of educational interventions. I built lifelong friendships, cross cultural competence, and grew as a researcher and person.

My first Waymo ride with Ed Dieterle to round out an amazing 2 days with the Educating All Learners Alliance (EALA) Community of Action. Now @chrisdomaleski.bsky.social isn’t the only Center for Assessment person in the Waymo club. This should be a 1 item personality test. Would you get in?

Looks like bluesky “starter packs” are hot, so I created one for assessment and measurement accounts (mostly K12 because that’s who I follow). Let me know if you want to be added but here is my start at a few of us. Follow them. go.bsky.app/DW9LoQa
