About the Workshop
This workshop introduces attendees to the Stanford Education Data Archive (SEDA), a database of nationally-comparable academic achievement data made publicly available by The Educational Opportunity Project (EOP) at Stanford University. SEDA is based on roughly 430 million standardized test scores from 3rd-8th grade students in U.S. public schools, districts, counties, and states from the 2008-09 through 2017-18 school years. These data enable nationwide research to better understand student achievement and educational opportunity.
In this workshop, the EOP team will provide a description of SEDA's contents, showcase examples of correlational and causal research that can be conducted with SEDA, and highlight relevant validation studies that support the use of SEDA in different types of research. Attendees can explore the SEDA data before and during the training using our interactive data explorer (https://edopportunity.org/explorer/<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Faera.inf...>) or by downloading the data files (https://edopportunity.org/get-the-data<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Faera.inf...>/) and using statistical software (e.g., R or Stata). For more information on SEDA and research using SEDA please visit the Research section of the EOP website (https://edopportunity.org/research/<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Faera.inf...>).
Prior to the workshop please complete the online Data Use Agreement: https://edopportunity.org/get-the-data/<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Faera.inf...>.

New grants post award point of contact for the college
by Michael Karcher
Dear Colleagues,
For those of you overseeing sponsored projects, I want to let you know that Justin will no longer be the point of contact for COEHD and its Centers/Institutes, as he is moving to oversee HCap sponsored projects.
Ms. Ariana Aguillon to be the post award administrator for COEHD and associated centers and units tied to COEHD. The post award point of contact is current and up to date in Peoplesoft. Ariana comes to UTSA from Texas A&M International with 12 years of research administration and I have full confidence in her ability to assist the COEHD researchers. I hope you will join me in welcoming Ariana to the team.
I’ve cc’d Ariana, so you have her email if you have post-award needs to discuss with her.

by Rosalind Horowitz
Subject: [EXTERNAL] Johns Hopkins Macksey Symposium Applications Open
**EXTERNAL EMAIL**
This email originated outside of The University of Texas at San Antonio.
Please exercise caution when clicking on links or opening attachments.
Dear COEHD Faculty,
I write to inform you of an excellent opportunity for our COEHD Undergraduate Students, sponsored by Johns Hopkins University. The goal is to engage
Undergraduates in developing and presenting research among a national student population! The deadline for submitting an Abstract is APRIL 1st, Thursday.
I forward the letter that I received given my work in Undergraduate Research.
All best regards,
Rosalind Horowitz
COEHD Representative
Member, Undergraduate Research Board, UTSA
Received from Johns Hopkins University:
I'm writing to invite your students to apply for Johns Hopkins University's second annual Richard Macksey National Undergraduate Humanities Research Symposium. The symposium was designed to offer students across the country the chance to gather together and disseminate their humanities research on a national scale. COVID forced us to adapt to a virtual event<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmackseys...>, but that in turn was a great success, with 359 participants and more than 10,000 visits to the conference site to date. This year's event will be virtual as well, held live on April 24th and 25th, 2021, and our application portal is now open<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fjohnsho...>. The deadline for abstract submissions is April 1st.
This symposium is open to undergraduate students from any two-year or four-year college or university who would like to present their original scholarship in the humanities. We hope to have 400 participants this year. In addition to the multiple panels of student papers and presentations (including original creative works), we will also have a wonderful keynote delivered by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Anthony Doerr and multiple professional development panels featuring Johns Hopkins graduate students and faculty and editors from Johns Hopkins University Press. Students studying all areas of the humanities are welcome to attend. Attendees will also have the opportunity to work with our student editors to revise their presentation into a journal-length presentation for our journal of proceedings, the Macksey Journal<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fmackseyj...>.
You can learn more at our conference site: https://krieger.jhu.edu/macksey-symposium/<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fkrieger...>. I would also be glad to answer any questions you might have! This is just a one-time email, but if you would like to receive updates on the symposium, our mailing list is available at this link<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fvisitor...>.
Thank you so much for forwarding this widely to students, department administrators, and anywhere you see fit! Please also consider posting or redistributing our flyer (available at this link<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fkrieger...>) anywhere it seems helpful. Thank you for helping us build this humanities community!
