Examining the impact of a play-based middle school physics program
The Playground Physics program combines informal, play-based, embodied learning experiences to support middle school students’ engagement with and motivation to learn about complex and abstract physics concepts. This experimental design study examines the impact of Playground Physics on students’ science motivation, classroom engagement, and physics knowledge. The study involved 24 treatment teachers using Playground Physics with 1,928 students, …
Short Comparative Interrupted Time Series Using Aggregate School-Level Data in Education Research
Short comparative interrupted times series (CITS) designs are increasingly being used in education research to assess the effectiveness of school-level interventions. These designs can be implemented relatively inexpensively, often drawing on publicly available data on aggregate school performance. However, the validity of this approach hinges on a variety of assumptions and design decisions that are not clearly outlined in the literature. This a…
Measuring Instructional Differentiation in a Large-Scale Experiment
This study operationalizes four measures of instructional differentiation: one for Grade 2 English language arts (ELA), one for Grade 2 mathematics, one for Grade 5 ELA, and one for Grade 5 mathematics. Our study evaluates their measurement properties of each measure in a large field experiment: the Indiana Diagnostic Assessment Tools Study, which included two consecutive cluster randomized trials (CRTs) of the effects of interim assessments on s…
