Australian Council for Educational Research
This report presents a comprehensive overview of the reach and impact of Children's University in Australia and New Zealand. The Australian Council for Educational Research compiled available evidence to consolidate the evidence of the Children's University outreach program's extent and influence across the Australasian partnership. The independent evaluation synthesises information from existing research, reports, operational data, social media, and other documentation to provide a current snapshot of the Children's University's reach and impact, guided by the following research questions. How is the program underpinned by evidence-based best practice? What is the reach of the program in Australia? What does the available evidence indicate about the impact or potential impact of the program on student outcomes? [This independent evaluation was commissioned by Children's University.]
