Project-based learning in AP classrooms: Lessons from research
A team of researchers wanted to learn whether AP teachers using a project-based learning (PBL) approach could develop students’ deep learning of knowledge and skills while preparing them for their AP exams. They used a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the Knowledge in Action (KIA) project-based curricula for AP courses. KIA students outperformed non-KIA students on AP exams, including within subgroups. Though the shift to PBL required cons…
Do Electoral Rules Matter: Political Institutions and Foreign Direct Investment in Latin America
Despite the growing importance of domestic institutions in the political economy literature, few studies explore the effects of disaggregated measures of political institutions, specifically electoral rules and systems, on foreign direct investment (FDI).

Using data from a rolling cross-section campaign survey where two incumbents competed in a predominately conservative district, the authors find that a substanti…
