Education Next is a Cambridge, Massachusetts-based publication in the higher education sector that publishes a journal focused on school reform and education policy. The journal publishes research and reasoned arguments with fidelity to the evidence, avoiding advocacy for any particular program or ideology. It operates with a small team and engages with developments in American K-12 education by following where the data leads. In January 2024 Education Next released the 2024 RHSU Edu-Scholar Public Influence Rankings, which identify university-based scholars whose work influences educational practice and policy. The organization has also introduced a membership model for families offering services such as tutoring and classes, and it has pursued innovations like modular mini-assessments aligned to local curricula to inform instruction and assess mastery of grade level standards. It conducts long-running public opinion surveys on education.
