Edwards, Danielle Sanderson; Kraft, Matthew A.; Christian, Alvin; Candelaria, Christopher A. – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2022
We develop a unifying conceptual framework for understanding and predicting teacher shortages at the state, region, district, and school levels. We then generate and test hypotheses about geographic, grade level, and subject variation in teacher shortages using data on teaching vacancies in Tennessee during the fall of 2019. We find that teacher…

Williams, Ryan; Citkowicz, Martyna; Miller, David I.; Lindsay, Jim; Walters, Kirk – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2022
Since the standards-based education movement began in the early 1990s, mathematics education reformers have developed and evaluated many interventions to support students in mastering more rigorous content. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of U.S. PreK-12 mathematics intervention effects from 1991 to 2017 to study sources of…

Borokhovski, Eugene; Tamim, Rana; Pickup, David – Commonwealth of Learning, 2022
This second-order meta-analysis (i.e., systematic quantitative synthesis of individual meta-analyses) summarises how the use of technology affects learning (achievement outcomes) in three different educational settings: in-class, online learning and blended learning. Comprehensive literature searches identified 915 potentially relevant…

Pala, Senol Mail; Basibuyuk, Adem – Review of International Geographical Education Online, 2020
Map skills are included in the curriculum of different courses in basic education and secondary education, although they are more involved in the Social Sciences Curriculum (SSC) and Geography Curriculum (GC). Based on this situation, the research aimed at a comparative examination of the mapping skills included in the SSC and GC, which were…

Wilkens, Christian P.; Kalenda, Peter J. – Journal of School Choice, 2019
The State of Alaska, by some measures the United States' most rural state, has long supported correspondence schools, a popular school choice option available to all students statewide and used primarily by homeschooled students. This paper first explores Alaska correspondence schools in historical context, and then quantifies capture rate,…

Lam, Kelly Ka Lai; Zhou, Mingming – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
This review examined the relations between grit and academic achievement based on a meta-analysis of 137 studies yielding 156 dependent samples (N = 285,331). Using the robust variance estimation, we found that the correlations of overall grit level with academic achievement were generally weak to moderate (weighted r = 0.19). The correlation of…

Tokac, Umit; Novak, Elena; Thompson, Christopher G. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2019
This meta-analysis investigated the effects of learning video games on mathematics achievement of PreK-12th-grade students compared with traditional classroom instructional methods. Results from the 24 collected studies showed heterogeneity among effect sizes, both in magnitude and direction. Using a random effects model, a small but marginally…

Shin, Jaehyun – ProQuest LLC, 2017
The purpose of this study was to examine the validity of two widely used Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM) in reading--oral reading and maze task--in relation to reading comprehension on state tests using a meta-analysis. A total of 61 studies (132 correlations) were identified across Grades 1 to 10. A random-effects meta-analysis was conducted…

Unrau, Norman J.; Rueda, Robert; Son, Elena; Polanin, Joshua R.; Lundeen, Rebecca J.; Muraszewski, Alison K. – Review of Educational Research, 2018
Studies of interventions' impact on reading self-efficacy have been conducted since the 1980s. The purpose of this project was to conduct a systematic review of these studies because the primary studies often yielded divergent results. Included studies entailed an intervention, addressed reading specifically, and reported explicit pre- and…

Winn, Kathleen M.; Mi Choi, Kyong; Hand, Brian – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2016
STEM education is a current focus of many educators and policymakers and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) with the Common Core State Standards in Mathematics (CCSSM) are foundational documents driving curricular and instructional decision making for teachers and students in K-8 classrooms across the United States. Thus, practitioners…

Colorado Department of Education, 2013
This report examines the relationship between socioeconomic status, as defined by a free-and-reduced lunch proxy variable, and student growth percentiles by elementary, middle, and high school grade levels for math, reading, and writing. Comparisons were made between median growth percentiles for each educational level by free and reduced lunch…

Powers, Sonya; Turhan, Ahmet; Binici, Salih – Pearson, 2012
The population sensitivity of vertical scaling results was evaluated for a state reading assessment spanning grades 3-10 and a state mathematics test spanning grades 3-8. Subpopulations considered included males and females. The 3-parameter logistic model was used to calibrate math and reading items and a common item design was used to construct…
