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.

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.

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.

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.

This discussion paper identifies 5 priority research projects about generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools in education and invites the education research community to partner with us. Working together we can better understand how to harness GenAI tools to reverse growing inequity in student learning outcomes.

This commissioned report provides an overview of the evidence underpinning a knowledge-rich curriculum and outlines the key design features and enablers to effectively enact a knowledge-rich curriculum in schools.

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.

This project conducted a review of Australian Initial Teacher Education (ITE) delivery to understand the extent to which ITE programs integrate foundational core content.
