This methodology outlines the processes AERO used to collect and analyse data for national research snapshots on evidence use and use of evidence-based practices in early childhood education and care.

In this case study, an early childhood education and care (ECEC) centre director and a teacher describe their use of evidence to improve outcomes for children.

This research collects information from educators, teachers and leaders working in ECEC about the place research and evidence has in their professional practice.

This early childhood learning trajectory focus on children’s progress in mathematical thinking, to support you to plan the next steps in their learning and development.

In this article, Adam Inder shares findings from AERO’s Implementing Effective Tiered Interventions in Secondary Schools' project.

The Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) conducted an online survey and a series of interviews as part of a project commissioned by the AERO. The survey and interviews were focused on students in Years 7 to 9 who lack the foundational literacy and numeracy skills that are required to engage with a secondary curriculum.

This guide aims to help secondary school leaders and teachers assist students in Years 7 to 9 who have significant gaps in foundational literacy and numeracy skills.

This review aimed to identify gaps in knowledge about supporting students behind their peers in Years 7 and 9.

The review was administered by the Australian Education Research Organisation (AERO) and conducted by the Centre for International Research on Education Systems (CIRES) at Victoria University. 

By examining literacy and numeracy results across assessments, we can better understand the performance of Australian students over time; we can pinpoint areas of national strength and weakness and improve Australia’s educational outcomes.

There are many research reports, articles, ideas and resources designed to help teachers and education systems. How, though, can teachers be sure what they choose to do will work? The answer is evidence.
