This conference met its aim and, to date, led to 29 unique works: five peer reviewed\u00a0manuscripts in Applied Measurement in Education, with Carney serving as special issue editor;\u00a0an edited special issue of Investigations in Mathematics Learning with two articles by VM<sup>2<\/sup>ED attendees\u00a0and Bostic, Carney, Krupa, and Shih as editors; two edited books (Bostic, Krupa, and Shih; Eds.) including\u00a018 peer-reviewed chapters from VM<sup>2<\/sup>ED attendees; two PMENA conference proceedings and accompanying\u00a0presentations; one AERA symposium with VM<sup>2<\/sup>ED attendees; and one NCTM Research presentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The purpose of the previous VM<sup>2<\/sup>ED conference\u00a0was to contextualize current conceptions of validity within the field of mathematics education with a focus on an argument-based approach to validation. The goals of the conference included (1) promoting conversation and collaboration among researchers with expertise in mathematics education and measurement; (2) identifying a set of recommendations for the elements of a purpose statement with examples; and (3) developing a set of example validity arguments situated in mathematics education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>Roles, expertise, and affiliations of VM\u00b2ED conference attendees<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>39 VM\u00b2ED Participants<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Roles\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>30 faculty members<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>6 graduate students<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>3 research scientists<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Areas of expertise\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>36 mathematics education<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>14 psychometrics<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Affiliations\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Boise State University<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bowling Green State University<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Educational Testing Service<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>George Mason University<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Indiana University<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Kent State University<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Montclair State University<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>North Carolina State University<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Oklahoma State University<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Southern Methodist University<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Texas State University<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The University of Alabama<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The University of Texas at San Antonio<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Alabama<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of California, Berkeley<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of California, Riverside<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Central Florida<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Central Missouri<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Georgia<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Kentucky<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Memphis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Michigan, Ann Arbor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Minnesota<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Nebraska-Lincoln<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Nevada, Las Vegas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of the Virgin Islands<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Toledo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>University of Wisconsin-Stout<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2017, the Validity Evidence for Measurement in Mathematics Education (VM\u00b2ED) National Science Foundation-funded conference brought together 40 educational researchers with expertise\u00a0in mathematics education, psychometrics, and applied measurement to construct a shared understanding\u00a0regarding validity within mathematics education contexts.\u00a0The aim of VM2ED was to convene scholars with an interest in examining\u00a0research on measurement validity with a&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":137,"featured_media":0,"parent":43,"menu_order":3,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ncst_dynamicHeaderBlockName":"ncst\/default-header","ncst_dynamicHeaderData":"{}","ncst_content_audit_freq":"","ncst_content_audit_date":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-282","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.ced.ncsu.edu\/mathedmeasures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/282","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.ced.ncsu.edu\/mathedmeasures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.ced.ncsu.edu\/mathedmeasures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.ced.ncsu.edu\/mathedmeasures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/137"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.ced.ncsu.edu\/mathedmeasures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=282"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/sites.ced.ncsu.edu\/mathedmeasures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/282\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":483,"href":"https:\/\/sites.ced.ncsu.edu\/mathedmeasures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/282\/revisions\/483"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.ced.ncsu.edu\/mathedmeasures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/43"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.ced.ncsu.edu\/mathedmeasures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=282"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
