Current research
Together with the University of Melbourne, we're looking for survey participants to help refine our understanding of how teachers and educators use evidence in their classroom or service.
Time taken to participate can be put towards professional development (approximately 30 minutes per survey).
There are 3 optional surveys:
- Evidence use and evidence-based practices, open to all Australian early childhood education and care teachers and educators, and primary and secondary teachers.
- Explicit instruction, open to all Australian primary and secondary teachers.
- Formative assessment, open to all Australian primary and secondary teachers.
If you have any questions, please email the University of Melbourne team or contact AERO.
