Background: Leaderboards are among the most popular gamification elements in education. Some studies have implemented leaderboards and reported their individual effects on students' learning. Despite the emergence of relevant empirical studies, most of the existing reviews have only investigated the holistic impact of gamification. No previous…

There is a need to continue to amplify the value of occupational therapy for individuals with disabilities who are transitioning from secondary education to adult settings, such as vocational and post-secondary educational environments. Literature evidences a lack of practitioner knowledge of assessments and evaluations within the scope of…

The Incredible Years Teacher Classroom Management (TCM) programme is an evidence-based training with documented positive effects on teachers' classroom management strategies and pupil mental health. However, programme effectiveness alone does not ensure sustainability. This study explored teachers' views on the sustainability of the TCM programme.…

Purpose: This study was intended to investigate a small-scale School-based Motivational Interviewing (SBMI) pilot with first-year college students. This approach honors student autonomy, supports self-determination and has the potential to impact educational outcomes in higher education. Motivational Interviewing (MI) is an evidence based…

Although researchers have investigated special educators' and clinicians' knowledge and use of evidence-based practices (EBPs), there is very little research on caregivers' perception of the importance of EBPs for their autistic children. Moreover, there is even less research on how EBPs have been translated or disseminated in international…

Adapting interventions based on learner progress is paramount to the effectiveness of interventions in special education and applied behavior analysis. Although there is some research on effective methods for training practitioners to make general instructional decisions (e.g., modify an intervention) based on graphed performance data, research on…

Background: 'Co-production' is one of the key concepts in evidence-informed policy and practice -- in terms of both its theoretical importance and its practical applications - being consistently discussed as the most effective strategy for mobilising evidence in policy and practice contexts. The concept of co-production was developed (almost)…

Background: Learning analytics (LA) collects, analyses, and reports data from the learning environment, to provide evidence of the effects of a particular learning design. Learning design (LD) outlines the conceptual framework for a meaningful interpretation of Learning analytics data. Objectives: The study aims to identify the most relevant…

Evidence based medicine (EBM) has been synonymous to delivery of quality care for almost thirty years. Since the movement's inception, the assumption has been that decisions based on high quality evidence would translate to better care for patients. Despite EBM's many attractive features and the substantive attention it has received in the…

Methods: The Framework for Reporting Adaptations and Modifications-Enhanced (FRAME) was used to…

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.…

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.

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…

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…
