Bobilya, Andrew J.; Lindley, Betsy R.; Faircloth, W. Brad; Holman, Tom – Journal of Outdoor Recreation, Education, and Leadership, 2017
Evidence-based programming and the importance of research has gained attention among outdoor and adventure-based programs in recent years (Sibthorp, 2009) regardless of the challenges that often accompany this type of investigation (Bialeschki, Henderson, Hickerson, & Browne, 2012). Programs must often develop their own evaluation instruments,…

Nowicki, Jacqueline M. – US Government Accountability Office, 2020
States use their accountability systems to identify low-performing schools, which can receive added support and are expected to improve. Alternative schools serve students whose needs are not met in a regular school. They often serve at-risk students who are struggling academically or behaviorally. Given this unique population, the Government…

North Carolina policymakers are interested in which screening and monitoring assessment scores in grades K-3 best predict reading proficiency at the end of grade 3 in order to help educators identify at-risk students, place them in interventions, and monitor their progress.

Regional Educational Laboratory Southeast, 2020
More than half of North Carolina's grade 3 students struggle with reading. The percentage of students scoring below proficient in reading at the end of grade 3 was 55 percent in 2017/18. That percentage has remained largely unchanged, at above 50 percent, since 2013/14, when North Carolina passed its K-3 Read to Achieve literacy act. Read to…

Phil Rodney Wilson – ProQuest LLC, 2020
Teacher certification is an important topic in the history of teaching in American education.

The National Board for Professional Teaching…

Ryoo, Kihyun; Toutkoushian, Emily; Bedell, Kristin – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2018
Energy and matter are fundamental, yet challenging concepts in middle school chemistry due to their abstract, unobservable nature.

Bastian, Kevin C.; Lys, Diana; Pan, Yi – Journal of Teacher Education, 2018
Teacher candidate performance assessments represent a promising source of data for evidence-based program improvement. However, teacher preparation programs (TPPs) interested in reform face a crucial question: how to identify actionable evidence in performance-assessment data. To address this concern, we propose a two-pronged empirical framework…
