Dr Sheldon Rothman is a Principal Research Fellow in the Program Evaluation research
program at the Australian Council for Educational Research.
He currently manages the On Track project, which surveys all school leavers from
Victorian secondary schools.
Since joining ACER in 2001 until the end of 2007, Dr Rothman worked mainly on the
Longitudinal Surveys of Australian Youth (LSAY) project, of which he was project director
from 2002. LSAY is a national research program that follows young people from the age of
15 until their mid-twenties, concentrating on the transition from school to work and
further study.
At ACER, he has also developed materials used in Growing Up in Australia: the
Longitudinal Study of Australian Children and analysed data from that project.
During 2008 and 2009, he supervised the psychometrics and data analysis team, which
supports much of ACER’s assessment work.
Before joining ACER, Dr Rothman taught in American and Australian schools and
universities, and worked in a variety of roles with state education departments in both
countries.
