Continuous research activities at the Lemeleson-MIT program ensure the quality and sustainability of our programmatic efforts. Our research covers topics that delve into cutting-edge education practices and provides critical insights into the impact of Invention Education on student learning, engagement, and self-perceptions. By systematically collecting and analyzing quantitative and qualitative data, we make evidence-based decisions leading to the iterative improvement of our programs. By disseminating our research findings through scholarly publications and conference presentations, we advance knowledge of the processes and practices that foster Invention Education nationwide. The research team is led by Stephanie Couch, PhD; and Tamara Galoyan, PhD.
