Farley, Jennifer; Duppong Hurley, Kristin; Aitken, A. Angelique – Grantee Submission, 2020
This project explored the reliability and utility of transcription in coding qualitative data across two studies in a program evaluation context. The first study tested the method of direct audio coding, or coding audio files without transcripts, using qualitative data software. The presence and frequency of codes applied in direct audio coding…

Mai, Yujiao; Zhang, Zhiyong – Grantee Submission, 2018
Multilevel modeling is a statistical approach to analyze hierarchical data, which consist of individual observations nested within clusters. Bayesian methods is a well-known, sometimes better, alternative of Maximum likelihood methods for fitting multilevel models. Lack of user-friendly and computationally efficient software packages or programs…

Valerie L. Mazzotti; Karrie Shogren; Jared Stewart-Ginsburg; Danielle Wysenski; Kathryn Burke; Lisa Hildebrandt – Grantee Submission, 2022
To promote and enhance self-determination, the Self-Determined Learning Model of Instruction (SDLMI) was developed for teachers to teach students the skills needed to engage in goal-directed actions. The SDLMI was originally designed to be delivered by teachers, but technologies are emerging that can provide an alternative medium to delivering…

Assessment is prevalent throughout all levels of education in the United States. Even though educators are familiar with the idea of assessing students, familiarity does not necessarily ensure assessment literacy, or data-based decision making (DBDM) knowledge. Assessment literacy and DBDM are critical in education, and early childhood education…

Kendeou, Panayiota; McMaster, Kristen L; Butterfuss, Reese; Kim, Jasmine; Bresina, Britta; Wagner, Kyle – Grantee Submission, 2019
We present an integrated theoretical framework guiding the use of visual narratives in educational settings. We focus specifically on the use of static and dynamic visual narratives to teach and assess inference skills in young children and discuss evidence to support the efficacy of this approach. In doing so, first we review the basis of the…

Sanchez, Rebecca Polley; Bartel, Chelsea M; Brown, Emily; DeRosier, Melissa – Grantee Submission, 2014
This study tested the acceptability and efficacy of an innovative intelligent tutoring system (ITS), "Adventures Aboard the S.S. GRIN," that translates the evidence-based in-person Social Skills Group Intervention (SSGRIN), into an interactive game-based social tutorial. This randomized controlled pilot trial tested the first half of the…
