Ball, Duke, Jacob, and Weiland make the 2023 RHSU Edu-Scholar Public Influence Rankings
The annual list ranks the university-based scholars in the United States who did the most in the previous year to shape educational practice and policy.
Education Week has unveiled the annual 2023 RHSU Edu-Scholar Public Influence Rankings which rate education scholars based on criteria that determines who has made the largest impact in their field over the previous year.
Four SOE professors—Deborah Ball, Nell Duke, Brian Jacob, and Christina Weiland—have made the noteworthy list of the top 200 scholars.
To determine their ranking, each scholar was scored in nine categories including: Google Scholar rating, number of times they were mentioned in newspaper, web, and education-focused articles, book publications, Amazon ratings, the number of times their texts appeared on syllabi, whether a scholar was referenced by a member of Congress, and their Twitter presence.
The rankings were created by Rick Hess, creator of the RHSU Edu-Scholar Rankings, who is a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute and the director of the think tank’s Education Policy Studies, as well as author of EdWeek’s “Rick Hess Straight Up” blog.
