The Education Research Project’s Goal is to Learn What Works Education Research Project is a national, independent research organization that conducts research on educational products, services, and trends for public and private institutions on a national, regional, and local basis. Since 1990, the Education Research Project has worked to discover what front-line educators, supervisors, principals, administrators, and other community members find works or doesn’t work — and what’s needed or not needed — in today’s learning environments. Our special niche in the education research arena is in assisting product developers for the elementary and secondary school markets to execute effective market and product research. And, a critical aspect of our market and product research service is our ability to find educators and community members who have experience, dedication and ideas about what works with primary and secondary school students.
