  1. WEBINAR 2 Defining Scientific Research Based Intervention

  2. Defining Scientific Research Based Intervention Outcomes for this webinar: • Identify key features of Scientific Research Based Intervention. • Identify factors that are critical in choosing an intervention

  3. Defining Scientifically Research-based (A) means research that involves the application of rigorous, systematic, and objective procedures to obtain reliable and valid knowledge relevant to education activities and programs; and NCLB Sec. 9101(37) & IDEA Sec. 300.35

  4. Defining SRBI (B) includes research that — • Employs systematic, empirical methods that draw on observation or experiment; • Involves rigorous data analyses that are adequate to test the stated hypotheses and justify the general conclusions drawn; • Relies on measurements or observational methods that provide reliable and valid data across evaluators and observers, across multiple measurements and observations, and across studies by the same or different investigators; NCLB Sec. 9101(37) & IDEA Sec. 300.35

  5. Defining SRBI (cont.) • ensures that experimental studies are presented in sufficient detail and clarity to allow for replication or, at a minimum, offer the opportunity to build systematically on their findings; • has been accepted by a peer-reviewed journal or approved by a panel of independent experts through a comparably rigorous, objective, and scientific review. NCLB Sec. 9101(37) & IDEA Sec. 300.35

  6. Questions that are appropriate to ask about your instruction / intervention / curriculum? • What is base of research to support its use? • How closely does their population of students match yours? • What are the critical features they are using? • How do they know it is working?

  7. See page 1 in handouts Decision Tree for Selecting Evidence-Based Practices Top to Bottom –process when SRBI’s are not available Left to Right—process from putting practice in place to scaling it up across a school or district.

  8. Using Research in the Selection Process • Statistical significant results means we feel confident that something is different • Effect size puts a value to the amount of change between two groups. Consider it to be strength of effect or return on investment (ROI) -.8+ large effect • .5 moderate effect • .2-.3small effect Cohen,J. (1988).

  10. Did You Know? • An evidence-based program is one thing… • Implementation of an evidence-based program is a very different thing. (Fixsen and Blase, 2006)

  11. Critical Features of Intervention • Documented base of research to support (Scientific Research-Based Interventions or SRBI) • Matched to needs of students • Implemented as designed • Continuously evaluated for effectiveness(groups and individuals)

  12. Outcomes? Outcomes for this webinar: • Identify key features of Scientific Research Based Intervention. • Identify factors that are critical in choosing an intervention
