Fugnitto, Gina; Stuart, Kelly – Learning Professional, 2021

Dill-Varga, Barbara – Journal of Staff Development, 2015

Menzes, Ana; Maier, Adam – TNTP, 2014

Zinth, Jennifer Dounay – Education Commission of the States, 2014
In recent years, many states have set ambitious postsecondary completion or attainment goals, driven in part by concerns that other OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) nations are outpacing the United States in the number of adults holding a postsecondary credential. While the U.S. has made modest gains since 2000 in the…

The National Center for Research in Early Childhood Education's (NCRECE) Course and MyTeachingPartner (MTP) Coaching were developed to…

North, Teresa Lynn – Current Issues in Education, 2013
Rising college costs are of increasing concern.

In 2002-2003, the overall average increase in tuition/fees more than doubled at 13.79%. In an effort to…

Stephan, Jennifer L.; Rosenbaum, James E. – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 2013
Despite planning college, disadvantaged students are less likely to enroll in college, particularly 4-year colleges. Beyond cost and academic achievement, previous research finds that a lack of college-related social resources poses barriers. However, little research investigates whether schools can help. We examine whether, how, and for whom a…
