Direct linkNadira Dayo; Sameh Said Metwaly; Wim Van Den Noortgate – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2024
Single-case experimental designs (SCEDs) may offer a reliable and internally valid way to evaluate technology-enhanced learning (TEL). A systematic review was conducted to provide an overview of what, why and how SCEDs are used to evaluate TEL. Accordingly, 136 studies from nine databases fulfilling the inclusion criteria were included. The…

John Deke; Mariel Finucane; Dan Thal – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2022
Background/Context: Methodological background: Meta-analysis typically depends on the assumption that true effects follow the normal distribution. While assuming normality of effect "estimates" is often supported by a central limit theorem, normality for the distribution of interventions' "true" effects is a computational…

Jacob; Jane Arnold Lincove; Karen Manship; Meghan McCormick; Luke Miratrix; Tomás E. Monarrez; Pamela Morris-Perez; Anna Shapiro; Jon Valant; Lindsay Weixler – Grantee Submission, 2024
Lottery-based identification strategies offer potential for generating the next generation of evidence on U.S. early education programs. The authors' collaborative network of five research teams applying this design in early education settings and methods experts has identified six challenges that need to be carefully considered in this next…

Elizabeth Talbott; Andres De Los Reyes; Devin M. Kearns; Jeannette Mancilla-Martinez; Mo Wang – Exceptional Children, 2023
Evidence-based assessment (EBA) requires that investigators employ scientific theories and research findings to guide decisions about what domains to measure, how and when to measure them, and how to make decisions and interpret results. To implement EBA, investigators need high-quality assessment tools along with evidence-based processes. We…

What Works Clearinghouse, 2020
This supplement concerns Appendix E of the "What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) Procedures Handbook, Version 4.1." The supplement extends the range of designs and analyses that can generate effect size and standard error estimates for the WWC. This supplement presents several new standard error formulas for cluster-level assignment studies,…

Lydia Bradford – ProQuest LLC, 2024
In randomized control trials (RCT), the recent focus has shifted to how an intervention yields positive results on its intended outcome. This aligns with the recent push of implementation science in healthcare (Bauer et al., 2015) but goes beyond this. RCTs have moved to evaluating the theoretical framing of the intervention as well as differing…

Education decisionmakers need access to the best evidence about the effectiveness of education interventions, including practices, products, programs, and policies. It can be difficult, time consuming, and costly to access and draw conclusions from relevant studies about the effectiveness of interventions. The What Works Clearinghouse (WWC)…

Berge, Maria; Ingerman, Åke – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2017
Background: In science education today, there is an emerging focus on what is happening in situ, making use of an array of analytical traditions. Common practice is to use one specific analytical framing within a research project, but there are projects that make use of multiple analytical framings to further the understanding of the same data,…
