Research shows that when students engage with mathematical inquiry their problem-solving skills are strengthened. Demands in the revised Australian curriculum raised problem-solving of new senior secondary mathematics assessment, specifically in Queensland Problem-solving and Modelling Tasks (PSMTs). The challenge for Queensland was to scale…

Drawing loosely upon strategies associated with collaborative autoethnography we conceptualise the place of practice in the professional doctorate through four distinct moves each of which compel us towards the conclusion that research, and practice are mutually entangled. In our first move 'research informs practice'. In this space practice is a…

Integrating Educational Technology into Teaching gives you a solid foundation to incorporate transformative technology into your classroom and across the curriculum. Learning theories and research-based practices model how to effectively plan, select and evaluate technology use across 12 content areas. Hands-on exercises, sample lessons and…

Centers for Teaching and Learning (CTLs) are uniquely poised to support instructors engaging in Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) through professional expertise in evidence-based teaching practice and dedicated staff resources. Models for this support have ranged from purely a funding source, to learning communities, to one-off technical…

There is a dearth of research examining school and district factors associated with the abandonment of evidence-based practice in schools. In this mixed methods study, we surveyed 23 school personnel working with 30 schools that abandoned and then readopted school-wide positive behavioral interventions and supports (SWPBIS). Our aims were to…

Purpose: We examine considerations regarding the positive contributions of evidence accountability and challenges that frustrate educators in gaining access to the needed product information. Design/Approach/Methods: We review the research literature on the multiple characteristics of evidence relative to consumer (practitioner) interests. We then…

This study examined the role of the Association of American Universities as a prestigious intermediary organization in scaling evidence-based teaching practices and explored whether and how the organization's identity shaped its potential for creating change. Interviewees most frequently identified networks and external supports/recognition as…

Current conservative assaults on Critical Race Theory (CRT) in education contend that elementary and secondary teachers and teacher education faculty are not only 'teaching CRT', but also hatred of white people and of 'America'. This article is based on a study that used CRT analytical tools and narrative inquiry to examine pre- and in-service…

The implementation of Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) in healthcare can significantly improve health outcomes and alleviate poverty, particularly in developing countries like Uganda. Despite its potential, EBP adoption remains limited due to challenges such as resource constraints and inadequate infrastructure. This study explores the barriers and…

This report sets out a bold package of reform to stabilise, mobilise and then maximise the contribution of UK universities to economic growth and widening opportunity for all. It has a single aim: to create a UK university sector that is better in ten years' time than it is today. This blueprint is evidence-based, action-oriented and consciously…

This article explores how the idea of teachers as agents of change is historically constructed through the institutionalisation, secularisation, and normalisation process of professional teacher knowledges. Authors comparatively examine eighteenth-century Habsburg Monarchy literary sources and nineteenth-century US documents on the formation and…

Assessments are an integral part of academic environments and can present opportunities for students to make sense of novel contexts using their existing ideas. Assessments also provide insights on students' learning and the efficacy of the pedagogical practices. Consequently, physics education research shares a storied history of developing…

It is time to reform the quantitative methods courses in leadership programs -- typically, these are statistics courses with arcane statistics textbooks. There is growing evidence that these "rigorous" scientific methods actually mislead practice because the vast majority of practices found to be "effective" or…

While the notion of an anti-racist curriculum is not new, many higher education instructors have not made the transition from a decolonized curriculum to an equally decolonized pedagogy. From a conceptual standpoint, the transition is understood but the actualization of this cyclical process is, at times, not as smoothly executed. Deconstructing…
