The study addressed leadership knowledge sharing among elementary school principals. School principals' comments regarding difficulty sharing what they have learned on the job about leadership gave impetus to investigating components of leadership that are not readily shared. Their comments implied both limited opportunities and limited language…

The study aimed to establish an assessment model for mathematics teachers' knowledge of students' misconceptions in the "Space and Shape" domain, develop the testing tool, investigate and analyse the overall and differences in performance, and propose suggestions for improvement. The assessment model included content knowledge and…

Teachers' knowledge and skills about data-based instruction (DBI) can influence their self-efficacy and their implementation of DBI with fidelity, ultimately playing a crucial role in improving student outcomes. The purpose of this brief report is to provide evidence for the technical adequacy of a measure of DBI knowledge and skills in writing by…

This study focuses on describing data based school management processes in Türkiye, Spain and Romania. The study group consists of 49 participants. Maximal variation and stratified sampling were applied. For internal trustworthiness, respondent validation, data triangulation and cross check were utilized. For transferability, 'expert opinions' and…

Teacher-level factors are theoretically linked to student outcomes in data-based instruction (DBI; Lembke et al., 2018). Professional development and ongoing support can increase teachers' knowledge, skills, and beliefs related to DBI, as well as their instructional fidelity (McMaster et al., 2020). However, less is known about how each of these…

This study analyzed general education teachers' knowledge of a multi-tier system of support (MTSS), as well as their understanding and implementation of effective practices within tier 1. It further studied their current application of tier 1 interventions at Garden State School District. As the framework of a multi-tier system of support became…

The purpose of this logistic regression study was to identify predictors of teacher-reported sustained use of data-based instruction (DBI) during the COVID-19 pandemic and assess the extent to which the identified predictors explained teachers' sustained use after completing programmatic support for intensive early writing instruction. We surveyed…

Federal and state accountability obligates public schools to improve standardized test scores for students in certain grades and in certain content areas from year to year. In the name of school improvement district and campus level administrators implement professional learning communities (PLCs) and set expectations for data informed instruction…

Although data-based individualization (DBI) has positive effects on learning outcomes for students with learning difficulties, this framework can be difficult for teachers to implement due to its complexity and contextual barriers. The first aim of this synthesis was to investigate the effects of ongoing professional development (PD) support for…
