Is anyone interested in presenting a response to the idea that psychological
science is going to solve all our educational ills at the 2003 APA convention
(it's in Toronto Aug 7-10). One thread of the meetings will be psychology
and education, specifically, how to support the OERI initiative and "No
Child Left Behind." I am planning to present and hope some others want to
join me in creating a symposium. Let me know if you're interested.
