Maximise students’ on-task learning time by minimising disruptive behaviour and disengagement.

This article explores some of the factors shown to impact school staff’s readiness for change and recommends 4 promising approaches.

Our work on how students learn best (also known as the science of learning) connects cognitive science, neuroscience and education psychology research on the learning process with practical teaching implications. 

This paper highlights the impact aligning teaching practices with how students learn has on educational outcomes. It underscores the importance of evidence-based practices that enhance learning for all students.

This tool is designed to help teachers, educators and leaders use evidence to make decisions about a new or existing practice or program based on AERO’s Standards of Evidence.

This is the second in a series of 4 practice guides designed to help teachers, educators and leaders use research evidence to strengthen decisions about their practice. It provides information about the types of print and online resources that contain research evidence, as well as using common library and online search tools.

This practice guide provides evidence-based, practical advice for teachers on how to teach sentence combining in the context of their classrooms.

AERO’s submission identifies 3 evidence-based teaching practices that should form the core content basis of the ACT’s support to schools. It recommends the ACT Education Directorate work with schools to implement these practices and outlines principles and support mechanisms for this.

Teaching practices that are aligned with how students learn are the most effective in improving education outcomes for all. There is strong evidence about the processes that occur during learning.

This is the first in a series of 4 practice guides designed to help teachers, educators and leaders use research evidence to strengthen decisions about their practice. It outlines common forms of research evidence and provides tips for what to look out for when considering research evidence.

Using evidence-based practices (EBPs), and using them well, is a critical way to improve student outcomes. Evidence-based practices are educational approaches that are backed up by research evidence.
