A new report from the UCLA Center for the Transformation of Schools — Beyond One-Size-Fits-All Education Approaches: Rethinking California’s Alternative Education System — takes the deepest look yet at nearly 900 Dashboard Alternative School Status (DASS) schools. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe report examines student demographics\, school climate\, and academic outcomes\, and identifies the system-level barriers that push young people off track to graduate. Findings point to concrete policy recommendations\, including a dedicated funding formula and a specialized educator workforce built for the students these schools serve. \n\n\n\n\nJoin the Reaching At-Promise Students Association\, the Association of California County Boards of Education\, and the UCLA Center for the Transformation of Schools for a conversation on what this research means for county boards\, superintendents\, and every leader working to build a system that meets students where they are — not where a one-size-fits-all model expects them to be. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n Register Now URL:https://seis.ucla.edu/event/beyond-one-size-fits-all-education-rethinking-californias-alternative-education-system/ LOCATION:Zoom ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://seis.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/Beyond-One-Size-Fits-All-Education.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20261014T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20261014T130000 DTSTAMP:20261009T154533Z CREATED:20260924T231415Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261009T154533Z UID:25039-1791979200-1791982800@seis.ucla.edu SUMMARY:Scaling Equity: Research and Evaluation Strategies for Stronger Community Schools & Whole System Strategies DESCRIPTION:This event has been postponed and will be updated once a new date is finalized.

Inclusive environments\, expanded opportunities\, and meaningful relationships can help diverse learners build connections (within neural and social bonds) as they learn\, belong\, and grow. The 2026 UC|CSU Collaborative Summit brings together educators\, faculty\, administrators\, and researchers in child development to explore how schools and communities can strengthen the social and relational skills that support learning\, well-being\, and future success for adolescents with individual learning differences. \n\n\n\nThe Summit is focused on two tracks: one on “From School to Community: Redesigning Inclusive 6-16 Learning Environments.” and one on “From Access to Agency: Building Digital Equity and Well-Being for Diverse Learners.” Each session features a moderated discussion with developmental scientists and practitioners in education or behavioral/mental health to connect research evidence with real-world practice. Ultimately\, the Summit aims to strengthen the capacity of grade 6-12 and higher education educators\, health professionals\, and system leaders to support the whole adolescent and expand opportunity for all adolescent learners. \n\n\n\n\n Register Now!

Stulberg\, author of How to Win a Culture War: LGBTQ+ Social Change Through Pop Culture (University of Chicago Press\, October 2026). \n\n\n\nIn this conversation\, Dr. Stulberg explores how culture workers in Hollywood\, elite sports\, theater\, and activism are transforming American society through their contributions to arts\, sports\, and politics—and why pop culture provides a crucial beacon of hope during challenging political times. \n\n\n\nDrawing on 14 years of research and 170 interviews with TV\, film\, and theater actors and creators\, musicians\, athletes\, and activists\, How to Win a Culture War argues that pop culture is not merely entertainment\, but a primary arena where social change is forged and political progress is sustained. \n\n\n\nAbout the Author: \n\n\n\nLisa M. Stulberg\, PhD\, is Associate Professor of Sociology of Education and Director of the Sociology of Education Program at New York University’s Steinhardt School of Culture\, Education\, and Human Development.

Diemer\, Chair of Combined Program in Education and Psychology and Professor of Educational Studies in the Marsal Family School of Education at the University of Michigan. \n\n\n\nAbstract: \n\n\n\nSound measurement is foundational to quantitative methodology in education and the social sciences. However\, the racist history of quantitative methodology and measurement has led some to the conclusion that these approaches are irredeemable. Instead\, acknowledging this history and repurposing quantitative methodology leads toward a more equitable\, anti-racist\, and critical quantitative perspective. \n\n\n\nThis presentation will explore measurement within the Critical Quantitative (CritQuant) framework. CritQuant is anchored by five guiding principles (i.e.\, foundation\, goals\, parity\, subjectivity\, and self-reflexivity) to mitigate racism (and/or other systems of oppression) and advance social justice. \n\n\n\nWithin the CritQuant framework\, MIMIC (Multiple Indicator and MultIple Causes) models help researchers enact equity-oriented measurement by testing for latent mean differences and item intercept differences (i.e.\, DIF\, or ‘differential item functioning’) across identity groups. These are important questions in educational and developmental sciences\, such as whether a measure of perceived discrimination is equally precise across groups. By providing more fair measurement\, this approach positions researchers to contribute to more equitable scholarship\, policy\, and practice. \n\n\n\nNote: The Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness paper accompanying this talk is available via https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/8thpu_v1.
