Winne, Philip H. – Frontline Learning Research, 2020
This special issue's editors invited discussion of three broad questions. Slightly rephrased, they are: How well do self-report data represent theoretical constructs? How should analyses of data be conditioned by properties of self report data? In what ways do interpretations of self-report data shape interpretations of a study's findings? To…

Stone, Whitley J.; Baker, Kayla M. – Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2022
The novel coronavirus may impact exercise habits of those with intellectual disabilities. Due to the mandated discontinuation of face-to-face research, investigators must adapt projects to protect all involved while collecting objective physical activity metrics. This brief report outlines a modification process of research methods to adhere to…

Gallitto, Aurelio Agliolo; Battaglia, Onofrio Rosario; Fazio, Claudio – Physics Education, 2021
We describe an educational activity that can be done by using smartphones to collect data in physics experiments aimed to measure the oscillating period of a spring-mass system and the elastic constant of the helicoidal spring by the dynamic method. Results for the oscillating period and for the elastic constant of the spring agree very well with…

Mott, Rebecca – Journal of Extension, 2018
With today's technology, Extension professionals have a variety of tools available for program evaluation. This article describes an innovative platform called VoiceThread that has been used in many classrooms but also is useful for conducting virtual focus group research. I explain how this tool can be used to collect qualitative participant…

LiBetti, Ashley; Schiess, Jennifer – Bellwether Education Partners, 2020
In Spring 2020, National Association of Charter School Authorizers (NACSA) convened a working group of authorizers and other stakeholders to learn more about the challenges they faced, given the data gaps caused by COVID-19, and to ask what guidance was needed for the sector to adapt to these unusual circumstances. Based on their feedback and…

Nelson, R.; Kelley, G.; Hebbeler, K.; Vinh, M.; Gillaspy, K.; Barton, L.; Reid, J. K. – Center for IDEA Early Childhood Data Systems (DaSy), 2017
The Local Child Outcomes Measurement System (L-COMS) is a framework that identifies seven key components of a high-quality child outcomes measurement system at the local level. The L-COMS framework was designed to apply to all local programs regardless of their specific child outcomes measurement approach. Development of the L-COMS originated with…

Feinberg, Richard A.; Rubright, Jonathan D. – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2016
Simulation studies are fundamental to psychometric discourse and play a crucial role in operational and academic research. Yet, resources for psychometricians interested in conducting simulations are scarce. This Instructional Topics in Educational Measurement Series (ITEMS) module is meant to address this deficiency by providing a comprehensive…

Hadley, Colette; Morgan, Elizabeth – National College Access Network, 2017
Community foundations have a lot of competition for donors these days. Growth in commercial donor-advised products such as the Fidelity Charitable Gift Fund has exploded, and even churches, universities, and United Way chapters have developed their own donor-advised fund options. As a result, many community foundations are working hard to…

Bruhn, Allison L.; McDaniel, Sara C.; Rila, Ashley; Estrapala, Sara – Beyond Behavior, 2018
Students who are at risk for or show low-intensity behavioral problems may need targeted, Tier 2 interventions. Often, Tier 2 problem-solving teams are charged with monitoring student responsiveness to intervention. This process may be difficult for those who are not trained in data collection and analysis procedures. To aid practitioners in these…

Schneider, Jack; Jacobsen, Rebecca; White, Rachel; Gehlbach, Hunter – Phi Delta Kappan, 2017
When it comes to measuring the quality of a school, policy leaders tend to embrace standardized tests as the go-to indicator, whereas parents and community members tend to rely on reputation, word-of-mouth, and what they perceive with their own eyes. The authors suggest a better approach: a new framework that looks at three categories of inputs…

Gharis, Laurie W.; Hightower, Mary F. – Journal of Extension, 2017
Today's Extension professionals are tasked with more work and fewer resources. Integrating social media campaigns into outreach efforts can be an efficient way to meet work demands. If resources go toward social media, a practical method for collecting metrics is needed. Collecting metrics adds one more task to the workloads of Extension…
