Stanford Graduate School of Education (GSE) welcomes two familiar faces back to the faculty: Susanna Loeb and Candace Thille, who both departed Stanford in 2018 for positions at other institutions, have returned to the university, bringing decades of experience in educational research, innovation, and collaboration.
“I am thrilled to welcome Susanna and Candace back to the GSE,” said Dan Schwartz, the I. James Quillen Dean and Nomellini & Olivier Professor of Educational Technology at the GSE. “Both are valued longtime colleagues and distinguished scholars who have had enormous impact in education. They are returning to Stanford during a transformational time in the field and at the university, and they bring a wealth of expertise and new ideas to this work.”
Both Loeb and Thille will be faculty leads in the Stanford Accelerator for Learning, the first university-wide initiative focused on accelerating solutions to learners. The Stanford Accelerator for Learning connects scholars across disciplines and with external partners to bridge research, innovation, practice, and policy, and bring quality scalable and equitable learning experiences to all.
