Common Core State Standards emphasize:
❖ The goal is to carefully examine obvious and less than obvious questions, using objective methods to test ideas about the factors that contribute to learning
The Role of Research in EP
- explain the relationship between factors.
Principles
- principles that have been thoroughly
tested and found to apply in a wide variety of
situations.
Laws
❏ - a set of related principles and laws
that explains a broad aspect of learning, behavior or another area of interest.
Theories
:
❏ Each decision a teacher makes has a theory behind it.
❏ The quality, accuracy and usefulness of those theories are what ultimately determine your success.
❖ The value
❏ Educational policies.
❏ Professional development programs.
❏ Teaching materials.
The impact
● Be a consumer of relevant research.
● Teach intentionally:
- Formulate a working hypothesis based
on observations and background
knowledge.
- Collect data to test the hypothesis.
- Organize and analyze the data.
- Draw sound.
- Conclusions based on the data.
- Take a course of action based on the
conclusions.
- Share your experiences.
How to be an Educated Consumer of Research
Researchers create special treatments and
analyze their effects.
Experiments
conditions are highly controlled.
Laboratory experiments
- conducted under realistic conditions
- Individuals assigned by chance to receive different practical treatments or programs.
Randomized field experiments
Study of treatment effect bycontrasting behavior before, during and after application of the treatment.
Single case experiment
the researcher studies variables as they are to see whether they are related.
They may tell us that two variables are related and do not tell us what causes are.
Correlational studies -
Variables can be:
Positively correlated
Negatively correlated
Uncorrelated
- when one variable is high, the other tends also to be high.
Positively correlated
- when one variable is high, the other tends to be low.
Negatively correlated
- no correspondence between variables.
Uncorrelated
Two examples of descriptive research

Ethnography

Action research
● Start with a good question, one that you care about and that addresses an important problem of educational practice.
