Now is your chance to play a role in this crucial process.

The United States Capitol in Washington DCThe US Department of Education’s $650m Investing in Innovation (i3) competition, which is open to all US school districts, needs peer reviewers to help judge the grant applications.

According to a recent Ed Week blog post, the i3 grant competition has the potential to be a more complicated selection process than even the Race to the Top Fund.

Pre-K-12 teachers, principals, college and university instructors and researchers are among those urged to apply. Reviewers should have expertise in at least one of the following areas: education reform and policy, evidence, innovation, and strategy.
