The Education Exchange: How to Reduce Chronic Absenteeism

Todd Rogers, Professor of Public Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School, sits down with Paul E. Peterson to discuss a new study that looks to curb chronic absenteeism through randomized experiments.

The paper, “Reducing Student Absences at Scale by Targeting Parents’ Misbeliefs,” is co-written with Avi Feller, and he co-wrote “How to Tackle Student Absenteeism” with Carly Robinson for Education Next.
