  • 11:02AM EDT

Please join the ¹ú²úÊÓƵ Foundation and Digital Promise for an invitation only Congressional Breakfast Briefing to mark the release of two new education papers on America’s stagnant educational productivity and the role e-learning R&D could play to increase it. Learn why e-learning R&D is prone to market failure and why it makes sense to fund e-learning R&D the way NSF funds scientific research and NIH funds health research.
