Xu, Zeyu; Nichols, Austin – National Center for Analysis of Longitudinal Data in Education Research, 2010
The gold standard in making causal inference on program effects is a randomized trial. Most randomization designs in education randomize classrooms or schools rather than individual students. Such "clustered randomization" designs have one principal drawback: They tend to have limited statistical power or precision. This study aims to…

It is quite plausible that the loss of teacher time due to planning, developing, and modifying a new curriculum led to the loss in reading achievement. (Author/CTM)
