Reading Recovery (RR) was introduced throughout New Zealand during the 1980s, for children struggling the most with learning to read after 1 year of formal schooling. In May 2024, the Minister of Education decided the programme would no longer be funded beyond 2024. This decision was based on evidence that the programme was not as effective as…

Initially launched in 2013, researchED claims to be a 'grassroots' organisation which disseminates the best educational research to classroom practitioners. During the last 10 years, it has played a pivotal role in cementing the 'new science' of educational research as the primary route to educational effectiveness. ResearchED events are popular…

Educational robotics is presented as a resource increasingly present in the early childhood education stage, allowing the development of STEM competences in a practical and motivating way. Due to the evolution of its use in the classroom, the aim of this paper was to analyse and evaluate research on robotics applied to early childhood education.…

Australia's higher education sector has seen substantial developments in equity and inclusivity as a result of initiatives which work to improve the numbers and experiences of students from a wide diversity of backgrounds. This practice report shares learnings from a recent national project about the impacts of a wide range of access and equity…

Augmented Reality has a positive impact in the world of education. Systematic review studies and article reviews have provided evidence of this positive impact. Augmented reality is an effective medium for learning, especially during a pandemic. The keyword used to find the articles on the Scopus database was "augmented AND reality AND in AND…

This study aims to address the gap in understanding the impact arising from education research, researcher collaborations with stakeholders, and knowledge mobilization activities in Singapore. Eight cases of local research projects are used to understand the phenomenon of research impact in different context-specific settings. The findings reveal…

Nowadays there is a growing research interest in the developments in the domain of Educational Robotics. The present paper is a systematic review of recently published Greek research pertaining to teaching interventions using robotic devices in order to present: a) a synthesis of the available results and the benefits from the utilization of…

As developments in technology progress, their use in education in general and in mathematics teaching specifically increases. The aim of this study is to explore the potential of technology use in mathematics lessons in the schools by examining prior research on the use of technology in mathematics teaching. Within the scope of the study, a…

The Impact Agenda, introduced with Research Excellence Framework 2014 (REF), constituted a revolution in research evaluation in the UK. 'Research impact' (impact of scholarly work outside of academia) became one of three profiles under which research quality is evaluated. This shift in the British evaluation system was followed, and often…

Educational researchers advocate the use of an effect size and its confidence interval to assess the effectiveness of interventions instead of relying on a p-value, which has been blamed for lack of reproducibility of research findings and the misuse of statistics. The aim of this study is to provide a framework, which can provide direct evidence…

Purpose: This systematic review paper aims to examine extant empirical research involving educational technology during COVID-19 to provide an aggregated analysis of how the pandemic has influenced educational technology research. Design/methodology/approach: Using a Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis systematic…

Project SMURF is an initiative of the Planning and Research Section (PRS) to uplift the performance of the Schools Division of Calapan City in research. Accordingly, this action research tested the effectiveness of the project and investigates further its possible contributions in attaining DepEd Goals. Underneath the quantitative research method,…

The increasing inclusion of students with disabilities in regular classes still leads to debate and many advocate for full inclusion of all students. Arguments for full inclusion are generally rights-based, but proponents also claim research supports the effectiveness of full inclusion over specialist provision for all students with disabilities.…

Many studies emphasise the need for supporting higher education students to develop general competences. In this study, we report on the first cycle of a designbased research project conducted in the Design Factory context. The aim of the project is to understand how general competences can be integrated into course modules and within…

Background: Information and communication technology (ICT) reading interventions can help children with reading difficulties, especially those in resource-constrained environments who otherwise might not have support. Objectives: (1) Provide an overview of ICT reading interventions used globally with primary school children. (2) Provide further…
