Field Schools

PEER Field Schools

In a PEER Field school, you will work intensively on your research project with your co-participants and our expert facilitators. The PEER curriculum covers fundamental skills like generative writing and collaborative feedback as well as foundational topics like choosing theoretical frameworks and matching research questions with data streams.

Field schools are offered in-person only. Whether they’re a regional group of researchers in your area, or a national community of education researchers, your PEER co-participants will support you as you learn together. Each Field School serves a slightly different population, and we tune the curriculum to match your needs.

Wherever you’re at, we’ll help you take your research to the next level.

Would you like to host a PEER field school?

Hosting is a great choice if you want to grow or strengthen your local community. Regional field schools typically cover our foundational material over 4-6 days. We’ll work with you to make sure our workshops meet your needs.

Gateway Workshops

Gateway workshops are for those who are just getting started in education research, want to hone your project design skills, or are curious about PEER, but don’t want to commit to a full field school.
