Research study groups are formed to enable scholars to establish a coordinated program of research among the study group members. The Institute does not provide direct funding of study group activities, but will assist group members with administrative support, mentoring, and assistance in obtaining funding for activities such as specialized conferences or training that can increase the likelihood of securing external funding. The following groups have taken advantage of the Institute’s support and services:
- Assessing Learning in Complex Domains
- Autism Spectrum Disorders Research and Training Consortium Study Group
