We believe an educational researcher is an artist or master of his or her craft, in much the same way as an actor or actress. Further, we believe it is equally entertaining, enlightening, and inspiring to hear from the best masters in the field of education. Inside the Academy provides members of the National Academy of Education and other distinguished and accomplished educational researchers and practitioners an opportunity to share their passion for educational research in a format similar to Bravo’s Emmy award winning show Inside the Actors Studio.
