Mansi Wadhwa; Jingwen Zheng; Thomas D. Cook – Review of Educational Research, 2024
Clearinghouses set standards of scientific quality to vet existing research to determine how "evidence-based" an intervention is.

Badenhausen, Richard – Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council, 2020
Using Michel Foucault's writing on discipline and training, the author suggests that processes like certification ultimately serve as covert normalizing activities that run counter to the spirit and practice of honors education. The author argues for an open, fluid, generative approach to honors program review.

Clemens, Nathan H.; Fuchs, Douglas – Reading Research Quarterly, 2022
Many seem to believe that researcher-made tests are unnecessary, if not inappropriate, for evaluating reading comprehension interventions. We suggest that this view reflects a zeitgeist in which researcher-made (proximal) tests that align with the researchers' interventions are closely scrutinized and often devalued, whereas commercially developed…

Thomas Archibald – Journal of Human Sciences & Extension, 2019
The debate over what counts as credible evidence often occurs on a methodological level (i.e., about what technical applications of systematic inquiry provide believable, justifiable claims about a program).

Christie, Christina A.; Lemire, Sebastian Thomas – American Journal of Evaluation, 2019
Many organizations now have evaluation policies. Because formal evaluation policies intend to frame evaluation practice, it is important to understand the aims of policies and their influence on practice.
