Andreas Lachner; Leonie Sibley; Salome Wagner – Educational Psychology Review, 2024
In educational research, there is the general trade-off that empirical evidence should be generalizable to be applicable across contexts; at the same time, empirical evidence should be as specific as possible to be localizable in subject-specific educational interventions to successfully transfer the empirical evidence to educational practice.…

Owen, Kaydee L.; Watkins, Richard C.; Hughes, J. Carl – Review of Education, 2022
Developing an evidence-base for educational provision can be an arduous journey. To facilitate consistent and accurate implementation of promising approaches, research efforts need to answer questions relating to theoretical coherence, efficacy, effectiveness, cost, ease of use, and acceptability. An evidence-building framework can help us to…

Hans-Peter Piepho; Johannes Forkman; Waqas Ahmed Malik – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024
Checking for possible inconsistency between direct and indirect evidence is an important task in network meta-analysis. Recently, an evidence-splitting (ES) model has been proposed, that allows separating direct and indirect evidence in a network and hence assessing inconsistency. A salient feature of this model is that the variance for…

Mads Paludan Goddiksen – Science & Education, 2025
Developing an adequate understanding of the nature of science includes developing an understanding of the uses and importance of models in science. General accounts of science aimed at university students, however, tend to neglect this aspect. A noticeable exception is the simple model of the key elements of a scientific result presented by Giere,…

Bilge Yurekli; Mary Kay Stein – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2025
Despite the evidence of its effectiveness on student learning, ambitious mathematics instruction has proven to be challenging for teachers to enact. Increasingly, instructional coaching programs have become a way of providing intensive one-on-one support to teachers to improve the quality of mathematics instruction. Researchers have identified…

Gerald Gartlehner; Leila Kahwati; Rainer Hilscher; Ian Thomas; Shannon Kugley; Karen Crotty; Meera Viswanathan; Barbara Nussbaumer-Streit; Graham Booth; Nathaniel Erskine; Amanda Konet; Robert Chew – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024
Data extraction is a crucial, yet labor-intensive and error-prone part of evidence synthesis. To date, efforts to harness machine learning for enhancing efficiency of the data extraction process have fallen short of achieving sufficient accuracy and usability. With the release of large language models (LLMs), new possibilities have emerged to…

James Nicholson; Jim Ridgway – Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, 2024
We explore ways in which statistics can be used to understand disease spread and support decision-making by governments. "Past performance does not guarantee future results"--we hope. We discuss and show examples from the National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded COVID-Inspired Data Science Education through Epidemiology (CIDSEE) project.…

Nolt, Kate L.; Leviton, Laura C. – American Journal of Evaluation, 2023
Evidence-based programs and grassroots programs are often adapted during implementation. Adaptations are often hidden, ignored, or punished. Although some adaptations stem from lack of organizational capacity, evaluators report other adaptations happen in good faith or are efforts to better fit the local context. Program implementers, facilitators…

Susan Douglas; Andrew C. Page; Christian Moltu; Michael Kyron; Tim Satterthwaite – Administration and Policy in Mental Health and Mental Health Services Research, 2024
Intended for researchers and clinical leaders, this article suggests that embedded program evaluation is a good fit with the desired features of practice-oriented research. The systematic nature of evaluation that is built into the operational workflow of a practice setting may increase the diversity of methods available to explore processes and…

Gallagher, H. Alix; Jordan, Danielle; Cottingham, Benjamin W.; O'Meara, Kiley; Faw, Leah – Policy Analysis for California Education, PACE, 2023
Busy educators are often faced with a dilemma--staying up to date with evidence-based practices and initiatives that support their professional growth while combating a constant barrage of superficial ideas from other contexts. Continuous improvement approaches to change offer methods for testing new ideas and adapting them to local contexts. If…

Monica Stitt-Bergh; Debra Fowler; Jonan Phillip Donaldson; Ra'Sheedah Richardson; Truth Hunter; Clinton A. Patterson – To Improve the Academy, 2023
Centers for teaching and learning (CTLs) address external and internal factors that influence teaching and learning. To accomplish this, often without additional resources, CTLs need an efficient and effective solution. By combining evidence-based practices in faculty development and a distillation of effective practices at three different…

Laci Watkins; Susan White; Sara McDaniel; Megan Fedewa; Daniel Cohen; Rajesh Kana – Preventing School Failure, 2024
There is increased focus on narrowing the research-to-practice gap in education for students with autism. Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based and widely implemented framework designed to improve outcomes for all students; however, relatively little attention has focused specifically on using the PBIS framework…

Bundi, Pirmin; Pattyn, Valérie – American Journal of Evaluation, 2023
Evaluations are considered of key importance for a well-functioning democracy. Against this background, it is vital to assess whether and how evaluation models approach the role of citizens. This paper is the first in presenting a review of citizen involvement in the main evaluation models which are commonly distinguished in the field. We present…

Hong, Quan Nha; Bangpan, Mukdarut; Stansfield, Claire; Kneale, Dylan; O'Mara-Eves, Alison; Grootel, Leonie; Thomas, James – Research Synthesis Methods, 2022
Reviewing complex interventions is challenging because they include many elements that can interact dynamically in a nonlinear manner. A systems perspective offers a way of thinking to help understand complex issues, but its application in evidence synthesis is not established. The aim of this project was to understand how and why systems…

Shaw, Liz; Nunns, Michael; Briscoe, Simon; Anderson, Rob; Thompson Coon, Jo – Research Synthesis Methods, 2021
The short time frame associated with rapid reviews can be challenging for researchers conducting qualitative evidence synthesis. In these circumstances a Best-Fit Framework Synthesis, drawing upon existing theory and/or research, may be conducted to rapidly make sense of qualitative evidence. This article discusses a "Rapid Best-Fit"…
