Research-based and practical reflection tools can enable systematic analysis of practice and contribute to deeper understandings of classroom processes. An empirically based, evidence-informed reflection tool was developed to support teachers to recognise feedback talk and how it is built into classroom interactions. The tool, titled the feedback…

Peer-feedback can be an effective way to improve pre-service teachers' evidence-informed reasoning skills (= EIR skills). However, because learners often struggle to provide high-quality feedback or to make sense of the feedback they receive, they need scaffolding. In this study, N = 254 pre-service teachers analyzed an authentic classroom case…

This paper describes the implementation of Check In Check Out (CICO) as an evidence-based practice to support students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) within educational settings. CICO, a Tier 2 intervention of Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS), has garnered attention for its effectiveness in enhancing students'…

Background: Evidence-based practice (EBP) is supported by the appropriate use of standardized outcome measures (OMs). Continuing education (CE) is a common method for translation of OMs knowledge to practice. However, little is known about the attitudes and behaviors of physical therapists regarding CE and knowledge translation (KT) of OMs.…

The current research examines an evidence-based program called Communities In Schools located in Texas that provides services to elementary students and teaches them how to navigate socially and emotionally through grief. Childhood experiences through losing a loved one can subsequently impact an elementary student's academic outcomes. However,…

This article provides an overview of the theoretical foundations of leadership engagement. The authors synthesize research informing leadership engagement practice and research in college environments. They highlight evidence-based instructional strategies and high-impact practices for effective leadership engagement for college students,…

A teacher's well-being has a powerful impact on their work with children, families, and colleagues, and can influence the overall quality of the program in which they are employed. With a specific focus on the unique factors related to the field of early childhood care and education, this book discusses the concept of well-being and how it applies…

Capstone experiences (CEs) are established high impact practices (HIPs) designed so students can synthesize their knowledge and skills obtained across their academic training. Understanding how instructors' intrinsic motivation and external expectations influence the design of CEs can help institutions create resources to support instructors when…

Education at all levels is being transformed, impacting teaching methods, materials, and the physical learning environment. Over recent years, efforts have been made to align school architecture with contemporary educational practices to create stimulating and responsive teaching and learning environments. In this context, Evidence-Based Design…

Leadership, coupled with learning, is an ongoing process in which everyone has a participatory role in school or district change efforts. Providing a useful antidote to the plethora of packaged curriculum and external professional development providers, this book focuses on reclaiming agency, advocacy, and inquiry for leaders and teachers in the…

Despite the common title of "coach," definitions of high-quality coaching vary tremendously across models and programs. Yet few studies make comparisons between different models to understand what is most helpful, for whom, and under what circumstances. As a result, practitioners are left with many options and little evidence-based…

Measurement-based care, an evidence-based practice endorsed by the American Psychological Association, is underpinned by routine assessment supporting a data-driven approach to clinical decision making. Nonetheless, there is a need for brief, nonproprietary measures assessing non-symptom-based outcomes. The present study examined the psychometric…

Since the 1990s, there has been a growing demand for evidence-based education policy and practice. This demand stems from concerns that education systems are not meeting the needs of a changing world and that education research lacks rigor. While this demand aims to improve the quality of education, silos between different actors often hinder how…

Intended for researchers and clinical leaders, this article suggests that embedded program evaluation is a good fit with the desired features of practice-oriented research. The systematic nature of evaluation that is built into the operational workflow of a practice setting may increase the diversity of methods available to explore processes and…

Data-based decision making (DBDM) is a process of using student data to inform instructional decisions and intensify intervention for students whose data indicate inadequate academic and behavioral progress. Data teams, an important structure for DBDM, are a collaborative group of school faculty who meet to systematically analyze student data,…
