The AERA-MET Dissertation Fellowship Program deadline is Monday, May 16, 2016.
The American Educational Research Association (AERA) with funding support from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is pleased to announce a dissertation fellowship program to support graduate students in education research to conduct secondary data analysis using the Measures of Effective Teaching (MET) Longitudinal Database. The AERA-MET Dissertation Fellowship Program provides funding and professional development and training to dissertation stage graduate students who use the MET data to address research questions and examine issues that will contribute to knowledge about teaching and learning. The program supports high-quality science undertaken by the education research field through dissertation research on topics related to teaching and instruction, the effects of the classroom and school climate, student achievement, children and youth, and other educational issues.

About the MET Database
The MET Longitudinal Database consists of extensive quantitative and qualitative information about teachers and their teaching, students' academic achievement, video-recorded lessons, and assessments of a teacher's pedagogical and content knowledge, as well as surveys of students, teachers, principals, and schools. Recognizing the importance and richness of the MET dataset, AERA supports and builds research capacity among graduate students who use these data in their dissertation projects. Through use of this dataset researchers are trained and encouraged to analyze the MET database systematically and rigorously (whether through quantitative or qualitative methodologies) to address education research questions that can ultimately enhance teaching and learning in our nation's K-12 classrooms. Funded dissertation studies that use the MET database are expected to contribute to new knowledge, advance analytic methods for using such data, raise the profile of the value of these data, and enhance the research findings produced by the next generation of secondary users of this resource.
The MET data is available through the University of Michigan's Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR). Applicants must adhere to the ICPSR Data Use Agreement and follow guidelines and eligibility requirements to gain access to the data. All MET data are restricted and require that doctoral level students access the data through a faculty member. If awarded the AERA-MET Dissertation Fellowship, the Chair of the dissertation committee must have an approved Data Use Agreement application with ICPSR that lists the awardee among those with access to the MET data. For further information about the MET data set visit: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/METLDB/ and http://www.metproject.org<http://www.metproject.org/>.
About the MET Program
This is a field-initiated grants competition. The MET data allow researchers to explore many possible topics using a variety of research methods. Some examples of projects that might be conducted using MET data are listed below (but many other topics of research are equally appropriate to study).
Illustrative Topics
* Research that advances the measurement of teaching using existing MET data. Such analyses might explore applying different statistical and/or psychometric models to the MET data in order to understand the dimensionality, reliability, and validity of various measures of effective teaching.
* Statistical, psychometric, and/or qualitative analyses that advance descriptive, correlational or causal research on teaching and teaching effectiveness using MET data. Analyses, whether quantitative or qualitative might be oriented to describing the nature of effective teaching as measured in the MET study (e.g., through explorations of central tendencies and distributions of measures of effective teaching) and/or to investigating relationships among variables in the MET data set (including, for example, teacher characteristics, classroom context variables, measures of classroom teaching, and measured student outcomes).
* Use of the MET data to advance the practice of teacher evaluation in schools. Such analyses might be oriented to exploring how particular measures of teaching can be used (alone or in combination) for personnel decision making in school systems (e.g., through analyses of measurement precision, error rates, or consequential validity).
* Analyses that seek to develop and/or test new measures of teaching using rigorous qualitative, quantitative or multiple research methods. Researchers with existing measures can develop and implement studies to validate these measures against MET data or other measures and scores created in the MET study.
* Use of existing MET video to conduct qualitative and/or quantitative research on the rating process. Such analyses might involve new scoring of existing MET videos and be oriented to examining the cognitive processes of those who score videos and/or the effects of different conditions of scoring on either the cognitive processes of raters and/or the resulting scores.
Eligibility
Eligible graduate students for the AERA-MET Dissertation Fellowship Program will be at the dissertation stage in an accredited graduate program in education research or another social or behavioral science disciplinary or interdisciplinary field, such as sociology, economics, psychology, or political science. Applicants must be U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents enrolled in a doctoral program. Underrepresented racial and ethnic minority researchers and women are strongly encouraged to apply. Applicants should be familiar with the principles and framework of the MET study and the instruments and methods used to collect the data. For further information about the MET project visit: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/METLDB/ and www.metproject.org.<http://www.metproject.org/>
