In this submission, AERO encourages the Tasmanian Government to implement evidence-based teaching practices in schools to help all students reach their full potential. It outlines the key practices that should underpin education reforms, as well as considerations for effective and sustainable implementation.

Knowing how students learn helps you apply teaching practices well, by understanding why some practices are more effective than others. This article focuses on techniques and strategies that improve outcomes for students.

This explainer outlines how students develop proficiency in maths. It explains how teaching practices and whole-school approaches aligned with how students learn can support the development of maths proficiency.

This collection of AERO’s Early Childhood Learning Trajectories is designed for teachers and educators working in early childhood education and care (ECEC) services for children in the years before school. It can support ongoing professional learning for individuals and entire ECEC services and teams.

These resources are designed to help school leaders lead staff in professional learning to support a whole-school approach to classroom management.

This report presents the findings of AERO’s rapid literature review on the effects of the evidence-based teaching practices formative assessment, explicit instruction and mastery learning on student achievement across contexts.

National Science Week provides an opportunity to celebrate the invaluable contributions of science teachers across Australia. This article highlights AERO's commitment to supporting science education through evidence-based resources and initiatives. We'll explore the unique challenges faced by science teachers, highlight our existing science-focused materials and unveil our latest project aimed at enhancing science writing.

This explainer is the third in a series of 5 on the key components of a deliberate and structured approach to implementation. It outlines the importance of understanding and responding to school-specific enablers and barriers to implementation.

How do we bridge the gap between knowing and doing? Schools are increasingly aware that evidence-based teaching practices will improve students’ outcomes. But, of course, knowing about evidence-based approaches isn't enough. Schools need to know how to adopt these practices successfully to gain the improvements they want to see. The 'how' is just as important as the 'what'. In this article, we explore the concept of implementation and share the key implementation components we’re using with schools.

AERO is working with a small number of schools to learn about a deliberate and structured approach to implementing evidence-based practices in different school contexts. This discussion paper shares our early insights from this work.

This is the fifth and final explainer in a series of 5 on the key components of a deliberate and structured approach to implementation. It outlines the process of monitoring implementation outcomes, including success outcomes schools can monitor, how these can be aligned with enablers and barriers, and methods for collecting data.
