The power of Random in Randomised Control Trials | Education_Researcher
https://educationresearcher.wordpress.com/2014/10/16/the-power-of-random-in-the-randomised-control-trials
Trying to contribute to debates about education research and measurement. The power of Random in Randomised Control Trials. October 16, 2014. In all the hubbub about education research and Randomised Control Trials I have seen few signs many fully grasp the real power of this technique – randomisation of who gets the program and who does not. I think closer consideration will excite educationalists at its potential to cut through the fog to give us a glimpse of the truth. If we can’t claim the group bein...

We don’t want a Premiership of schools or do we? My study in Schools Week | Education_Researcher
https://educationresearcher.wordpress.com/2015/06/12/we-dont-want-a-premiership-of-schools-or-do-we-my-study-in-schools-week
Trying to contribute to debates about education research and measurement. We don’t want a Premiership of schools or do we? My study in Schools Week. June 12, 2015. So it was nice when Schools Week contacted me to say they wanted to do an article. On my research into the kinds of schools teachers prefer to work in. It showed I wasn’t alone in thinking the study was on to something. But in this case, I retain all the evangelical veal I had when I wrote it. The English Premiership is not a competition to fi...
How to game Progress 8 and keep your professional self-respect | Education_Researcher
https://educationresearcher.wordpress.com/2014/09/29/how-to-game-progress-8-and-keep-your-professional-self-respect
Trying to contribute to debates about education research and measurement. How to game Progress 8 and keep your professional self-respect. September 29, 2014. This is because Progress 8 is based on an average and there are only two ways to move an average:. 1 Improve a minority of results so much that their improvement could be redistributed to everyone and still show an improvement overall (a skewed distribution). 2 Improve everyone’s results. This means that whatever it takes to do well at KS4 is less w...

Trying to contribute to debates about education research and measurement. The best thing about Progress 8. September 25, 2014. Http:/ www.bristol.ac.uk/cmpo/publications/papers/2005/wp128.pdf. Here is an example. The high impact on averages of a small numbers of extreme results is well known in statistics and is referred to the problem of ‘outliers’. Here an example of how outliers can have a large effect on averages:. Imagine you return from summer break and one of your Year 9 boys in your class has had...

School Data Updates: The Gift
http://sigplus.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-gift.html
Thursday, 16 July 2015. We're all knackered. You've all been teaching forever and I've visited approximately 1000 schools a week since I become self-employed last November. What I want to do right now is talk to my family, watch the Big Bang Theory, drink some beer and then sod off to France in a couple of weeks and go climbing. The last thing I wanted to do this evening was write a blog. But then the DfE published this research into the reception baseline. Then they appear to have let their guard down.

Educators shootin' from the hip. Primary school teacher and head of year two at an all through school in London. This year’s primary assessment data will be useless because everyone is going to just game it. The new assessment criteria. Alongside the statements, there is clear guidance in how children should be assessed. Most importantly:. Children should only be assessed once they have completed the key stage. The statements should not be used for ‘tracking’ progress part way through the year. During a ...

Is realist review the best approach for synthesising evidence on widening participation in higher education? | Imperfect Research
https://imperfectresearch.wordpress.com/2014/11/25/is-realist-review-the-best-approach-for-synthesising-evidence-on-widening-participation-in-higher-education
Kirsty's education / research blog. Is realist review the best approach for synthesising evidence on widening participation in higher education? Some of the key findings of our review were:. There isn’t much ‘robust’ (i.e. randomised trial or high-quality quasi-experiment) evidence about any WP interventions, and. One of the things mostly likely to work are ‘black box’-type programmes lots of different elements combined in a package, so that the trial doesn’t tell you. Relates to health policy interventi...

Why we need subject specialists in primary | Pedfed
https://pedfed.wordpress.com/2015/07/19/why-we-need-subject-specialists-in-primary
Educators shootin' from the hip. Why we need subject specialists in primary. This article was originally published in Teach Primary. Which is a wonderful magazine that is well worth subscribing to. The other articles are all better than this one. This topic became the subject for my recent talk at Pedagoo, where I received really interesting and insightful feedback from both primary and secondary teachers. I’ll blog about that soon. Whilst teaching the stone age recently, I found myself stumped on numero...

Educators shootin' from the hip. Why I love highlighters! This is a response to Alex Quigley’s excellent post. Why I hate highlighers! Which I encourage you to read. This week I’ll be teaching children to write a newspaper report. The learning will roughly follow this structure:. Introduce children to the text type. Agree on the purpose of the text. Investigate which techniques help the text to be effective in terms of achieving its purpose. Write the text type using (1) – (5). We are writing to inform.
What shouldn’t we teach in primary? | Pedfed
https://pedfed.wordpress.com/2015/07/19/what-shouldnt-we-teach-in-primary
Educators shootin' from the hip. What shouldn’t we teach in primary? The Guardian have just published a list of things. That teachers would like to be removed from the curriculum. They didn’t have any primary representation so they emailed me and ask for comment. Below is what I sent, which they decided not to use as it doesn’t really give a specific ‘unit’. But since I wrote it I thought I might as well share it here. Ultimately, if we want to know what should be cut from primary, we should probably ope...
Behaviour | Pedfed
https://pedfed.wordpress.com/2015/06/16/behaviour
Educators shootin' from the hip. I’m delighted that Tom Bennett has been appointed to oversee behaviour policy by Nicky Morgan. It’s particular heartening that the DfE has selected a practising teacher. Tom’s a great choice because I know that he spends a lot of his spare time talking to teachers far and wide, and has not only first-hand experience but one of the most comprehensive ‘second-hand experience banks’ out there. Because of the very fact that they are. Effective. They teach compliance, obed...

Trying to contribute to debates about education research and measurement. Are Universities avoiding accountability for fair access? One of best ways we can tell whether British society is getting fairer is the flow of disadvantaged into top universities. I hope it shocks you to consider that UK Universities are blocking access to this information. Alan Milburn of the government’s Social Mobility Commission has belatedly joined the army of voices having to ask…. Continue reading →. My study in Schools Week.
