This paper explores the complexity of TAOs…

van der Ploeg, Piet – History of Education, 2014
In the Netherlands there are 400 Dalton schools, while Dalton education has all but disappeared elsewhere, including in its country of origin: the USA. Following a brief period in the 1920s in which it enjoyed strong international interest, it disappeared from the scene. How can it be that the Dalton Plan still exists only in the Netherlands? This…

The State Capacity Assessment and District Capacity Assessment baseline data collected by the State Implementation and Scaling-up of Evidence-based Practices (SISEP) Center support the assertion of…

Abdul Razzak, Nina – Cogent Education, 2016
For any school improvement (SI) initiative to succeed, teachers' "buy-in" is a must. Usually, such a commitment is weak when the needed resources, training, know-how, and support are lacking. Bahraini public schools require teachers' "buy-in" and commitment. The twofold question though is this: (1) What are the experiences of…

Metoyer, Sandra K.; Miller, Scott T.; Mount, Jennifer; Westmoreland, Sandra L. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2014
Half of students who start college pursuing a degree in science drop out of the sciences by their senior year. This is due, in part, to low attendance and lack of preparation by the students. The failure to develop instructional strategies that actively engage students in science, however, is also a marked factor. A crucial need to reform how…

Fixsen, Dean; Blase, Karen; Horner, Rob; Sims, Barbara; Sugai, George – State Implementation and Scaling-up of Evidence-based Practices Center, 2013
Students cannot benefit from education practices they do not experience.

The purpose of this Brief is to provide a framework that…
