Teaching and learning toolkit
An online toolkit that summarises the global evidence about different approaches to improving learning outcomes in schools.
Purpose of the toolkit
The toolkit is based on meta-analysis, that is, synthesising existing research studies in a topic area. The aim of meta-analysis is to identify significant patterns across the research.
The purpose of the toolkit is to give educators a sense of those patterns.
School leaders and educators need to use their professional judgement and more detailed research evidence to decide whether to apply a given approach in their local context.
Contents of the toolkit
For each approach the toolkit provides an overview of the evidence base as well as a dashboard-style indication of the relative:
- strength of the evidence base
- implementation cost of the approach
- impact on students’ learning.
