Explained: The key components of 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.
Discussion paper

Insights into implementation

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.
Explainer

Monitoring implementation outcomes

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.
Explainer

Taking an evidence-informed approach to implementation

This explainer is the first in a series of 5 on implementing evidence-based practices in schools. It outlines how schools can take a deliberate and structured approach to implementation based on key ideas from the research evidence.
Explainer

Using a staged approach to implementation

This explainer is the second in a series of 5 on implementing evidence-based practices in schools. It outlines the key ideas for taking a staged approach to implementation.
Explainer

Using implementation strategies

This explainer is the fourth in a series of 5 on the key components of a deliberate and structured approach to implementation. It outlines processes, frameworks and methods for selecting and prioritising implementation strategies.

Social and emotional learning: Trajectory

This Early Childhood Learning Trajectory video outlines children’s progress in social and emotional learning. It can be used alongside the EYLF 2.0 assessment and planning cycle to support children’s learning, development and wellbeing.
Research summary

​​Measuring wellbeing and belonging in children aged 3 to 8 years​

To understand which wellbeing programs and practices adopted by early childhood education and care (ECEC) services and schools improve children’s outcomes, it is necessary to measure and track children’s wellbeing. This research summary shares some preliminary learning from work the Australian Education Research Organisation (AERO) commissioned on developing wellbeing and belonging measures for children aged 3 to 8 years.
Practice resource

Partnerships: Assessment for children’s learning

This resource is part of a series of 8 practice resources for assessment for children’s learning in early childhood education and care services (ECEC). Each resource is aligned with the Principles of the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF V2.0).
