What is evidence-based decision-making? • Why do it? • How to do it? • Examples • Audience Participation • Questions and Answers
Like many young parents, you have limited resources. How would you go about deciding what actions to take? • Friends and Colleagues whose opinion you Respect • Trial and Error • Best Practices • Books on the Subject • Your Own Experience • Common Sense • Advertising/Coupons • Wishful Thinking • Review of research …..
Clarify exactly what you want to know. • How can I “build a smarter baby?” • What steps could I take to help my child be better prepared for school? • What did my parents do for me that made me so (obviously) smarter than other kids? • What are my friends doing with their babies? • What actions could I take now to affect my baby’s cognitive development? • What actions and approaches have been provento help babies increase their success when they start school that are affordable and available to us?

Four Themes from 20 Years of Research on Infant Perception and Cognition • Author(s): Bremner, J. Gavin Source: Infant and Child Development, v20 n2 p137-147 Mar-Apr 2011. 11 pp. Peer Reviewed: Yes ISSN: 1522-7227 Descriptors: Infants, Social Cognition, Child Development, Perceptual Development, Cognitive Development, Literature Reviews, Goal Orientation, Eye Movements, Brain, Cognitive Processes, Experience, Developmental Stages Abstract: This paper reviews progress over the past 20 years in four areas of research on infant perception and cognition. Work on perception of dynamic events has identified perceptual constraints on perception of object unity and object trajectory continuity that have led to a perceptual account of early development that supplements Nativist accounts. Work on face processing has charted developmental changes that clarify the way innate systems are modified by experience. Research on perception of goal-directed action and animacy has made significant progress in uncovering the roots of social cognition from 6 months onwards. New methods such as eye tracking and measures of brain activity have done much to confirm and clarify conclusions arising from more conventional looking preference methods. It is likely that future progress in theory and understanding will be made increasingly as a result of triangulation between data arising from conventional and newer methods. (Contains 2 figures.)

Synthesize the findings of credible research studies for guidance in making the best decision.
The reason you might want to make this effort is • to target available resources (time, money, political capital) towards an action or solution most likely to yield the outcome you desire.
2. Identify – looking to find studies relevant to the question being systematically reviewed. • 3. Appraise – critically analyze the studies for validity, reliability, bias, proper methodology, etc. • 4. Synthesize – summarize the studies findings and attempt to reconcile them • 5. Decide -- make a decision and allocate resources based on the “weight of the evidence.” • 6. Justify -- make a cogent, convincing argument for your decision or suggested program based upon compelling evidence.
Using this more scientific research approach also eliminates unconscious bias … • Go beyond finding studies or opinion pieces that support a hypothesis or mesh with your own perspectives or rely on one or two studies you like among many. • Less reliance on statements of opinion or conclusions based on single instances or someone’s personal experience.
1. Write down the question: exactly what you want to know, as narrowly as you can. • If we put in a mentoring program for our at-risk students, would they do better? • If we put in a mentoring program for our at-risk students, would their overall graduation rates improve? • If we copied what they are doing at the San Diego Community Colleges, will our at-risk student graduation rates increase? • What are the essential elements of a mentoring program that, based on evidence, should increase the graduation rates of our at-risk students?

A Review of Programs Involving College Students as Tutors or Mentors in Grades K-12. Volume I. Author(s): Reisner, Elizabeth R. ; And Others Source: 73 pp. • A Review of Programs Involving College Students as Tutors or Mentors in Grades K-12. Volume I. Author(s): Reisner, Elizabeth R. ; And Others Source: 73 pp. Peer Reviewed: N/A Publication Date: 1989 Descriptors: College School Cooperation, College Students, Disadvantaged Youth, Elementary Secondary Education, Federal Programs, Higher Education, Literature Reviews, Mentors, Program Descriptions, Program Effectiveness, Tutorial Programs, Tutors, Volunteers, Elementary Secondary Education, Higher Education Abstract: This document comprises the first volume of a three-volume study, mandated by the Augustus F. Hawkins-Robert T. Stafford Elementary and Secondary School Improvement Amendments of 1988, on domestic and foreign tutoring programs for disadvantaged elementary and secondary students that involve college students. This volume summarizes the results of the mandated study, which was expanded to include mentoring programs. The programs had the following positive effects on disadvantaged students: (1) improved test scores, grades, and overall academic performance; (2) improved motivation and attitude towards education; (3) increased familiarity with environments other than their own; and (4) improved self-esteem and self-confidence. The programs had the following positive effects on college students: (1) they obtained practical experience and improved leadership and communication skills; (2) developed a greater commitment to community service; and (3) increased their self-esteem and self-confidence. Positive effects were associated with programs with the following structures: (1) defined time commitments from tutors and mentors; (2) systematic screening of prospective tutors and mentors and matching with younger students; (3) thorough training and monitoring of tutors and mentors; and (4) close relations between the sponsoring colleges and participating school systems. The following federal programs could provide assistance to tutoring and mentoring programs: (1) Chapter 1 and 2 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act; (2) the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education; and (3) the College Work Study Program. Statistical data are included on 16 tables. A list of 15 references is appended. (FMW) Corporate Source: Policy Studies Associates, Inc., Washington, DC.

A few interesting findings thus far from a doctoral student … • Janet Leslie, Student, University of Maryland University College Doctorate of Management in Community College Policy and Administration
To use or not to use? • Use when there is a solid research base • Use when you are interested in developing solutions to problems based on weight of evidence • Use when numerous qualitative and/or quantitative studies are available but have not yet been aggregated by other scholars
Community College Possibilities • If we create a mandatory orientation program, what key elements and pedagogy are likely to improve student success? • If we create a widespread ethical training curriculum for all our employees, should that produce more ethical behavior? • If we hired a “crisis manager” to assist students, would they be more likely to complete their coursework? • Does creating a culture of evidence (ATD) result in direct benefits to student learning?
