Jona Lilienthal; Sibylle Sturtz; Christoph Schürmann; Matthias Maiworm; Christian Röver; Tim Friede; Ralf Bender – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024
In Bayesian random-effects meta-analysis, the use of weakly informative prior distributions is of particular benefit in cases where only a few studies are included, a situation often encountered in health technology assessment (HTA). Suggestions for empirical prior distributions are available in the literature but it is unknown whether these are…

Li, Hua; Shih, Ming-Chieh; Tu, Yu-Kang – Research Synthesis Methods, 2023
Component network meta-analysis (CNMA) compares treatments comprising multiple components and estimates the effects of individual components. For network meta-analysis, a standard network plot with nodes for treatments and edges for direct comparisons between treatments is drawn to visualize the evidence structure and the connections between…

John Deke; Mariel Finucane; Dan Thal – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2022
Background/Context: Methodological background: Meta-analysis typically depends on the assumption that true effects follow the normal distribution. While assuming normality of effect "estimates" is often supported by a central limit theorem, normality for the distribution of interventions' "true" effects is a computational…

Shankar, Sneha; Marshall, Sheila K.; Zumbo, Bruno D. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2020
Goal attainment scaling (GAS) is an internationally recognized measure that is widely used in educational, counseling, and clinical settings to identify and evaluate relevant goals for an individual. The GAS is an unusual measure because its content, which consists of goals, is formed by the respondent and/or users in the process of completing the…

Kathleen Lynch; Kathryn E. Gonzalez; Heather C. Hill; Ramsey Merritt – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2024
Inconsistent reporting of critical facets of classroom interventions and their related impact evaluations hinders the field's ability to describe and synthesize the existing evidence base. In this essay, we present a set of reporting guidelines intended to steer authors of classroom intervention studies toward providing more systematic reporting…

There is evidence that universal school-based mindfulness training (SBMT) can have positive effects for young people. However, it is unknown who benefits most from such training, how training exerts effects, and how implementation impacts effects. This study aimed to provide an overview of the evidence on the mediators, moderators, and…

Qing Yu; Kun Yu; Baomin Li – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Computer programming is regarded as an important skill for the future. However, many K-12 students face challenges and difficulties in learning traditional text-based programming. Block-based visual programming (BVP) can reduce the difficulty of learning programming and is seen as a potential programming education tool. Nevertheless, the effects…

Delen, Ibrahim; Sen, Sedat – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
Design-based learning (DBL) offers opportunities to support students' content understanding. Previous DBL studies reported different effect sizes by using the data from one participant group. The goal of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis that would give a comprehensive picture of how DBL is connected to student achievement in different…

Loh, Raymond Chee-Yen; Ang, Chin-Siang – Research in Social Sciences and Technology, 2020
Teaching and learning have evolved over the years. While the use of lecture is still the dominant mode of teaching in educational institutions, there has been consensus that students need to be active in learning, for which traditional styles of teaching may not be well suited. This calls for an alternative instructional mode: cooperative learning…

Dermeval, Diego; Paiva, Ranilson; Bittencourt, Ig Ibert; Vassileva, Julita; Borges, Daniel – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2018
Authoring tools have been broadly used to design Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS). However, ITS community still lacks a current understanding of how authoring tools are used by non-programmer authors to design ITS. Hence, the objective of this work is to review how authoring tools have been supporting ITS design for non-programmer authors. In…

Guenther, John; Lowe, Kevin; Burgess, Catherine; Vass, Greg; Moodie, Nikki – Australian Educational Researcher, 2019
Education for Australian First Nations students living in remote communities has long been seen as an intractable problem. Ten years of concerted effort under Closing the Gap and related policy initiatives has done little to change outcomes beyond small, incremental improvements. Programmes and strategies promising much have come and gone, and…

Citkowicz, Martyna; Lindsay, Jim; Miller, David; Williams, Ryan – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2020
Many public and private initiatives have focused on improving prekindergarten (PK) through Grade 12 mathematics education, given that the mathematics content learned before college is foundational for later learning and college success across STEM subjects. Although decades of educational research have studied PK-12 mathematics interventions, the…
