What Works Clearinghouse Rating
Mansi Wadhwa; Jingwen Zheng; Thomas Cook – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2023
Background: Research clearinghouses (CHs) seek to play an important role in identifying successful social programs and practices. The evidence-based policy movement has grown tremendously over the last few decades and has gotten institutionalized in the form of CHs in the US. CHs (1) specify standards for evaluating the quality of evidence from…

Fatemeh Momeni; Monica Bhatt; Jonathan Guryan – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Literacy skills are instrumental to unlocking a child's full potential and have a well-established link to long-term life outcomes. Children who can't read at grade level by 3rd grade are four times more likely to drop out of school, have fewer career prospects, and earn lower incomes as adults. However, despite some progress on literacy rates,…

Caroline Botvin; Tyler Watts; Jade Jenkins; Robert Carr; Kenneth Dodge; Douglas Clements; Julie Sarama – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2022
Background/Context: Early childhood education research has consistently found evidence of immediate, positive effects on developmental outcomes. Despite these strong initial benefits, follow-up analyses often reveal that these effects fadeout in the years following participation (e.g., Bailey et al., 2017, Clements et al., 2013; Lipsey et al.…

Keuning, Trynke; van Geel, Marieke; Visscher, Adrie; Fox, Jean-Paul – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2016
Around the world during the last decade, policymakers increasingly emphasize the use of data in education to enhance student achievement. As a result, the number of reform initiatives to promote "data-based decision making" (DBDM) or "data-driven decision making" (DDDM) has increased rapidly. At the University of Twente in the…

Stahmer, Aubyn C.; Reed, Sarah; Suhrheinrich, Jessica; Schreibman, Laura – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2013
Increasing diagnoses of autism have led to pressure to improve the quality of educational services for children with autism by incorporating evidence-based practices (EBPs) into school programs. However, this process has been difficult, and both autism researchers and educators report frustration concerning the gap between research and practice.…

Vaden-Kiernan, Michael; Borman, Geoffrey; Caverly, Sarah; Bell, Nance; de Castilla, Veronica Ruiz; Sullivan, Kate; Fleming, Grace – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2016
This study addresses the effectiveness of a widely used core reading program that reflects the research-based practices recommended by the National Reading Panel. This and other similar programs are increasingly used to prevent reading difficulties and ensure that all children are reading at or above grade level by the end of third grade.…

Heppen, Jessica; Sorensen, Nicholas – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2014
The consequences of failing core academic courses during the first year of high school are dire. More students fail courses in ninth grade than in any other grade, and a disproportionate number of these students subsequently drop out (Herlihy, 2007). As shown in Chicago and elsewhere, academic performance in core courses during the first year of…

Eno, Jared; Heppen, Jessica – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2014
Algebra is considered a key gatekeeper for higher-level mathematics course-taking in high school and for college enrollment (Adelman, 2006; Gamoran & Hannigan, 2000). Yet, algebra pass rates are consistently low in many places (Higgins, 2008; Ham & Walker, 1999; Helfand, 2006), including Chicago Public Schools (CPS). This is of particular…
