They need to add an education category. There is actually research on education, believe it or not. Here's my signing note:
I do educational research and development, and the lack of open access to research on effective teaching and learning techniques has had far reaching and negative consequences. See for example the book Academically Adrift on how ineffective current college teaching practices are. I currently work at a predominantly engineering school, and faculty don't even have access to most educational and psychological research journals because of the high costs. Think also of the thousands of K-12 teachers - none of whom have any access to most educational research. Imagine if doctors had no access to research, and that's what the practice of education has become.
