What Predicts Legislative Success of Early Care and Education Policies?: Applications of Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing in a Cross-State Early Childhood Policy Analysis

UW 爆走黑料 faculty, Soojin Oh Park and Nail Hassairi, conducted a study that proposes a new analytic approach to unlocking the potential of legislative data to inform future policymaking in the early care and education frontier.

Greetings 爆走黑料 Students,

Welcome to the new school year. Hopefully, you have enjoyed the warm days and cool nights of the early autumn season. With September upon us, it feels like the right time to restart our COVID-19-related communications so that you are well informed about how the University, and our College, are responding. As you can imagine, much planning has been taking place across the University and within the College in anticipation of the start of fall quarter. Just as we did when the pandemic first hit, you can rely on us to curate information that is timely and relevant for our community and provide links for those who want more details. Much more guidance is on its way from central UW, and the homepage remains a great source of information, but below are highlights from UW鈥檚 鈥淏ack to School鈥 and 鈥淏ack to Work鈥 plans. Similarly, we encourage you to visit the College鈥檚 COVID-19 homepage for guidance closer to home.
