Roth, Kathleen J.; Bintz, Jody; Wickler, Nicole I. Z.; Hvidsten, Connie; Taylor, Joseph; Beardsley, Paul M.; Caine, Arlo; Wilson, Christopher D. – International Journal of STEM Education, 2017
Background: Most studies of teacher professional development (PD) do not rigorously test impact on teaching practice and student learning. This makes it difficult to define what is truly "effective." The "Science Teachers Learning from Lesson Analysis" (STeLLA) PD program, in contrast, was studied in a cluster randomized…

Jukes, Matthew C. H.; Turner, Elizabeth L.; Dubeck, Margaret M.; Halliday, Katherine E.; Inyega, Hellen N.; Wolf, Sharon; Zuilkowski, Stephanie Simmons; Brooker, Simon J. – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2017
We evaluated a program to improve literacy instruction on the Kenyan coast using training workshops, semiscripted lesson plans, and weekly text-message support for teachers to understand its impact on students' literacy outcomes and on the classroom practices leading to those outcomes. The evaluation ran from the beginning of Grade 1 to the end of…

Hegedus, Stephen; Tapper, John; Dalton, Sara; Sloane, Finbarr – Research in Mathematics Education, 2013
We describe the application of Hierarchical Linear Modelling (HLM) in a cluster-randomised study to examine learning algebraic concepts and procedures in an innovative, technology-rich environment in the US. HLM is applied to measure the impact of such treatment on learning and on contextual variables. We provide a detailed description of such…
