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.…

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…

Studies show a need for career and technical education (CTE) faculty to have more instructional training. Greater use of evidence based instructional practices (EBIPs) would likely improve community college CTE program instruction by providing research-based guidance for effective instruction. Use of EBIPs remains low across all levels of…

The effectiveness of school-based universal prevention programs is frequently diminished due to low-quality implementation. Organizational factors support high-quality implementation because of their broad influence across implementers. Conceptually, implementation leadership (i.e., behaviors that prioritize, reward, and support evidence-based…

The purpose of this action research was to determine a cycle of identification and implementation for evidence-based strategies to be implemented in the classroom for Tier 2 and Tier 3 instruction along the Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) framework. The research questions guiding the study focused on leaders' perceptions of effective…

Throughout the last 30 years, many European countries have 'modernized' their governance of education. For the Central European school systems of Austria and the German Bundesländer it has been claimed that this 'modernization' was characterised by a sequence of reform 'waves' which culminated in introducing 'evidence-based governance' models…

Novice teachers report feeling unprepared for classroom management following teacher preparation and requested additional support. Evidence-based, preventative, and nonverbal classroom management strategies help teachers develop positive environments and support active learning. This is a study of how novice teachers' feelings of unpreparedness…

Teacher engagement in evidence-based practice has been a concern of the K-5 educational community for many years, with studies finding teachers' engagement with research may be growing, but is still not consistent. Epistemic beliefs are becoming a popular topic in the study of the learning process with a limited number of qualitative studies…

Schools in the UK and Europe, North America and Australia are introducing ambitious forms of relationships and sex education (RSE) or school-based sexuality education. For RSE to be effective it must be inclusive, recognising and respecting the needs and experiences of those who have not always been well served by sex/sexuality education. This…

There has been a growing interest in characterizing factors influencing teaching decisions of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) instructors in order to address the slow uptake of evidence-based instructional practices (EBIPs). This growing body of research has identified contextual factors (e.g., classroom layout,…

This survey-based study delves into the intricate interplay of research utilisation in the pedagogical approaches of a sample of 534 teachers across Catalonia (Spain), Poland, and England. Applying Baudrillard's Theory of Consumption lenses, we present novel insights into the multifaceted aspects of research use, including its benefits, costs, and…

This article reports on a mixed-methods study examining the ways in which faculty and staff engage with the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) at a medium-sized research-intensive university in southern Ontario, Canada. Survey data was collected from fifty-six faculty and staff respondents, along with eight faculty completing follow-up…

This mixed methods study explored the relationship between collegiate math instructors' reported teaching practices, teaching beliefs, and actual teaching practices. Instructors reported their own teaching practices by survey. Qualitative participants were purposively sampled from the quantitative survey results. These qualitative participants…

The purpose of this study was to determine whether teachers working with students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) are familiar with the resources shown to be most effective at improving student outcomes in this population and to what extent they are utilizing evidence-based practices in their classrooms. It also sought to gather…

Positive behavioral interventions and supports (PBIS) Tier 2 interventions are deemed an evidence-based practice that influences student academic and behavioral success. The problem addressed in this study was that there exists an academic and discipline disparity between African American students and peers of other races. The purpose of this…
