Li, Wei; Konstantopoulos, Spyros – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2017
Field experiments in education frequently assign entire groups such as schools to treatment or control conditions. These experiments incorporate sometimes a longitudinal component where for example students are followed over time to assess differences in the average rate of linear change, or rate of acceleration. In this study, we provide methods…

Jiang, Zhonghong; White, Alexander; Rosenwasser, Alana – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2011
The project reported here is conducting repeated randomized control trials of an approach to high school geometry that utilizes Dynamic Geometry (DG) software to supplement ordinary instructional practices. It compares effects of that intervention with standard instruction that does not make use of computer drawing/exploration tools. The basic…
