Research Studies Of The Week

I often write about research studies from various fields and how they can be applied to the classroom. I write individual posts about ones that I think are especially significant, and will continue to do so. However, so many studies are published that it’s hard to keep up. So I’ve started writing a “round-up” of some of them each week or every other week as a regular feature.

By the way, you might also be interested in MY BEST POSTS ON NEW RESEARCH STUDIES IN 2021 – PART TWO.

You can see all my “Best” lists related to education research here.

Here are some new useful studies (and related resources):

The term ‘achievement gap’ fosters a negative view of Black students is from The Conversation. I’m adding it to The Best Resources For Learning About The “Opportunity Gap” (or “Achievement Gap”).

Why Many Academic Interventions Don’t Have Staying Power—and What to Do About It is from Ed Week. I’m adding it to The Best Resources For Understanding How To Interpret Education Research.

I’m adding this next tweet to New & Revised: The Best Resources For Understanding Why We Need More Teachers Of Color:

“Black students randomly assigned to at least one Black teacher in grades K–3 are 9 percentage points (13 percent) more likely to graduate from high school and 6 percentage points (19 percent) more likely to enroll in college” https://t.co/YKjPc9sCtt
