The Teaching and Learning Toolkit: Communicating research evidence to inform decision‐making for policy and practice in education. Review of Education, 10(1), Article e3327. https://doi.org/10.1002/rev3.3327

This article compares and contrasts two versions of the Education Endowment Foundation's (EEF) Teaching and Learning Toolkit (‘Toolkit’), a web-based summary of international evidence on teaching 3–18 year-olds. The Toolkit has localised versions in... Read More about The Teaching and Learning Toolkit: Communicating research evidence to inform decision‐making for policy and practice in education.

Individual Participant Data Meta-analysis of the Impact of Educational Interventions on Pupils Eligible for Free School Meals (2021)
Journal Article
Ashraf, B., Singh, A., Uwimpuhwe, G., Higgins, S., & Kasim, A. (2021). Individual Participant Data Meta-analysis of the Impact of Educational Interventions on Pupils Eligible for Free School Meals. British Educational Research Journal, 47(6), 1675-1699. https://doi.org/10.1002/berj.3749

Meta-analysis is the synthesis of findings from research projects, which enables an estimate of the average or pooled effect across various studies. This study presents findings from the intention to treat analysis for a series of educational evaluat...

Multisite educational trials: estimating the effect size and its confidence intervals (2021)
Journal Article
Singh, A., Uwimpuhwe, G., Li, M., Einbeck, J., Higgins, S., & Kasim, A. (2022). Multisite educational trials: estimating the effect size and its confidence intervals. International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 45(1), 18-38. https://doi.org/10.1080/1743727x.2021.1882416

In education, multisite trials involve randomisation of pupils into intervention and comparison groups within schools. Most analytical models in multisite educational trials ignore that the impact of an intervention may be school dependent. This stud...

Application of Bayesian posterior probabilistic inference in educational trials (2020)
Journal Article
Uwimpuhwe, G., Singh, A., Higgins, S., & Kasim, A. (2021). Application of Bayesian posterior probabilistic inference in educational trials. International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 44(5), 533-554. https://doi.org/10.1080/1743727x.2020.1856067

Educational researchers advocate the use of an effect size and its confidence interval to assess the effectiveness of interventions instead of relying on a p-value, which has been blamed for lack of reproducibility of research findings and the misuse...

Latent Class Evaluation in Educational Trials: What Percentage of Children Benefits from an Intervention? (2020)
Journal Article
Uwimpuhwe, G., Singh, A., Higgins, S., Coux, M., Xiao, Z., Shkedy, Z., & Kasim, A. (2022). Latent Class Evaluation in Educational Trials: What Percentage of Children Benefits from an Intervention?. The Journal of Experimental Education, 90(2), 404-418. https://doi.org/10.1080/00220973.2020.1767021

Educational stakeholders are keen to know the magnitude and importance of different interventions. However, the way evidence is communicated to support understanding of the effectiveness of an intervention is controversial. Typically studies in educa...
