What Works Clearinghouse
The What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) is an investment of the U.S. Department of Education's Institute of Education Sciences. Its purpose is to provide educators, policymakers, researchers, and the public with a central and trusted source of scientific evidence on what works in education. The WWC's goal is to produce high-quality products that help education practitioners, teachers, state and local administrators, and researchers make evidence-based decisions. It does so through a systematic review process, replicable documentation, and transparent reporting. The WWC team--which includes numerous contractors, consultants, academic specialists, and federal employees--produces a suite of products in varying formats carefully designed to reach audiences with distinct and sometimes diverging needs. This article provides a brief overview of these products in the hope that the various audiences will access and use them frequently.
