Welcome to the RWB Community

Researchers Without Borders is a home for open research in education. It is a collaborative working environment in which researchers across academic institutions, disciplines, sectors, and levels of organizational structure can direct their efforts to solve shared problems, do collaborative research and development, and build productive working relationships and collaborations.

This community is a key part of RWB. It is the place to raise and discuss emerging issues, questions and ideas about open research and the RWB projects. Browse each of the groups to see what they are about. If you are interested in creating additional groups, click "Create New Group."

Researchers Without Borders is an initiative of the University of Chicago's Center for Elementary Mathematics and Science Education.
